HP15C emulator for the PocketPC Message #1 Posted by Andrés C. Rodríguez (Argentina) on 22 May 2003, 1:54 p.m. A seemingly interesting HP15C emulator for the PocketPC appears in: http://microsoft.handango.com/PlatformProductDetail.jsp?siteId=75&jid=BF2C84CABF6633A5832424CAAEE298C3&catalog=0&sectionId=0&productType=2&platformId=2&productId=49174 I have not used it, this is just a pointer for who may be interested...

Please, somebody build this for PALM!! Message #2 Posted by Patrick on 22 May 2003, 4:46 p.m., in response to message #1 by Andrés C. Rodríguez (Argentina) It sure looks great, and the 15C is one of my favs. Alas, I have a Palm and I'm certainly not switching to another cumbersome Microsoft platform. I just hope somebody eventually makes this for Palm. The KK-12C from KKtechnologies.com is a decent 12C emulator, but we need emulators for the out-of-production machines, too!!

OmniSolve [Was: HP15C emulator for the PocketPC ] Message #4 Posted by Raymond Del Tondo on 23 May 2003, 6:34 a.m., in response to message #1 by Andrés C. Rodríguez (Argentina) Too bad the 15C emulator is only for 'Pocket PC 2000/2002' . If there were a version for Handheld PC Pro, with WinCE 2.11 , it would be more interesting. However, since my Jornada 690 has OmniSolve is built-in, there's not much need to 'upgrade'. For those who don't know what Omnisolve is: It's a very nice RPN calculator emulation, switchable between RPN and algebraic. In RPN mode, it looks like an 11C or 15C, with minimal differences. And best of all: It's FREE. You only have to have the Handheld PC, of course;-) Raymond

Re: OmniSolve Message #5 Posted by Andrés C. Rodríguez (Argentina) on 23 May 2003, 8:28 a.m., in response to message #4 by Raymond Del Tondo Omnisolve was available as a software product from Landware (if I recall correctly), but was included in some HP Jornada handheld PCs indeed. Other brand (non HP) handhelds needed to buy it.
