Amazon $77.99 HP 49G+ SN:CN511xxxxx Message #1 Posted by Bob Wang on 17 June 2005, 9:22 p.m. Thank you Scott Dunn! I just received the 49G+ I ordered from Amazon, thanks to Scott's post. $77.99 persuaded me to take the leap :-) Hewlett Packard 49G+ Graphing Calculator Serial Number is CN511xxxxx, which I assume means a manufactured date of around March, 2005. Came with ROM 1.23. Would not recognize a Canon 16MB SD card formatted as FAT, but update to ROM 2.0 worked with an old Viking 128MB SD card. Have only played with it a little, but no missed keystrokes so far, knock on wood. Bob

You answered an important question that popped up in earlier postings--is this an old stock which may be of somewhat poor quality? From your s/n the answer is no -- what you got is the latest. Namir

Re: Amazon $77.99 HP 49G+ SN:CN511xxxxx Message #5 Posted by James M. Prange (Michigan) on 21 June 2005, 8:36 a.m., in response to message #4 by Arnaud Amiel Arnaud, if you want one, confirm with me at my e-mail address and I'll try to do order one for you and re-ship it. Offhand, I don't know what the shipping cost would be, but I'd only ask for the actual postage (or other shipping arrangement). I think that Amazon offers free shipping, although slightly faster shipping may be available at higher cost. The same goes for anyone else who wants one but can't get it directly from Amazon. Regards, James

Re: Amazon $77.99 HP 49G+ SN:CNA412xxxxx Message #6 Posted by Jeff O. on 21 June 2005, 5:56 p.m., in response to message #1 by Bob Wang I received my Amazon 49g+. It came in less than a week. It is S/N CNA412xxxxx. I was hoping for a CNA5... unit. However, the keyboard does seem to feel better than my other unit (which I think is a CN351 or thereabouts) and so far does not seem to miss keystrokes. Oh well, if it misses ANY keystrokes or otherwise misbehaves within a year, I'll send it back for a replacement with one of those new metal-dome keyboards that "I, Claudius" told us about. Plus I can still get the $10 rebate, for a net $67.99 cost which won't be so bad.

Looks like the Amazon sale is over... Message #7 Posted by Matt Kernal (US) on 22 June 2005, 11:52 a.m., in response to message #1 by Bob Wang or that they (Amazon) are out of stock.

Costco now has best price Message #8 Posted by John L, Shelton on 22 June 2005, 2:13 p.m., in response to message #7 by Matt Kernal (US) A quick check at Froogle.google.com shows $126 to be the best price around. But checking at Costco.com, I see it for $114.99.
