Re: RPN emulator for Palm OS Message #13 Posted by Mike Tjebben on 30 Aug 2001, 12:33 p.m., in response to message #1 by R.J. Bied
Thanks you VERY MUCH for pointed out the sale on Math_U_Pro, R.J.! It is a nice program, and very similar to the HP41's programming.
I had tried it before, but passed it up in favor of RPN, because of the price.
It's nice to have both on my Palm now - Math_U_Pro, for it's EASY programmability, and RPN for it's many available user aps.
I'd like to see an HP16C emulation on the PALM. Joseph M. Newcomer has the start of a nice version except it is very slow, as he himself acknowleges. www.pgh.net/~newcomer.
And I'd surely think it'd be wonderful to have an HP41 or 42 emulator on the palm (though the Math_U_Pro is so similar). It'd just be super-cool to run the actual same programs as the HP41 on the Palm! I don't yet want a WindowsCE machine (on which the emu41 and stuff do run now), because of the much higher battery usage, higher intial expense, and more cumbersome OS. (And MS Outlook, which is what they sync-to is "banned" where I work, because it is too prone to virus and trojan attacks!)
Anyway, it is wonderful that you made this sale known to us on this forum, because it's been awhile that I had re-visited Creative Creek and would not have known...
-Mike
