Re: HP 33s "best seller scientific programmable calculator" Message #4 Posted by Norris on 30 May 2007, 11:46 a.m., in response to message #3 by kdv
According to Casio, the "selling area" of the FX-5800P is "Europe , International (Asia , Oceania , Central & South America , Mid-East & Africa)". It is apparently not distributed in North America. In the US market, the 33S is probably the only player in the "scientific programmable" niche.
In the US, the term "programmable calculator" is now virtually synoymous with "graphing calculator". The major niche for the 33S, as a "scientific programmable", is on professional licensing exams where "graphing calculators" are prohibited.
