Re: HP9S facelift? Message #2 Posted by Raymond Del Tondo on 23 Dec 2005, 1:27 a.m., in response to message #1 by Gene I think you mean the area surrounding the display;-) The keyboard area has exchangeable faceplates since the beginning. Raymond

Re: HP9S facelift? Message #3 Posted by Gene Wright on 23 Dec 2005, 8:47 a.m., in response to message #2 by Raymond Del Tondo Hi Raymond. I know the HP30s had changeable faceplaces, but I didn't think the 9S did. My 9S has a white background with blue shifted functions (which is actually a very GOOD contrast even if somewhat garish). Do you really have a 9S with changeable faceplates? I dont' think mine came with any. Cheers! Gene

Re: HP9S facelift? Message #4 Posted by Raymond Del Tondo on 23 Dec 2005, 10:16 a.m., in response to message #3 by Gene Wright Hi Gene, yes, I have some of these (30S, 9S, 9G) units, and a 'marketing kit' which consists of a blue cardboard box with one 9G and one 9S each. You can exchange the faceplates between them, although it doesn't make too much sense, since the keyboard legends are not compatible between the 9G and 9S. The 9G and 9S basically share the same housing as the 30S, only the ROM and display are different, and of course the keyboard legends... The display of the 9G seems to be the same as one of my old Casios, a 7400G. At least for the 30S there's a faceplate kit available. I don't know if this is the case for the 9G and/or 9S. Regards Raymond
