hp 35s News Too Early?
Message #1 Posted by cfh on 31 May 2007, 7:16 a.m.

http://www.calculatrices-hp.com/35s.html is down.

Was the information withdrawn? Did the homepage release the news too soon? Is it still supposed to be a secret?

I don't care - I love it, and will buy one for everyone here at work. TI-users included! (*adding a convert-button on the hp: TI->HP*)

cheers cfh

No, not withdrawn, it is announced for the 'summer'. Here is response I received from the official distributor in Belgium: Goedemiddag,

Deze toestellen worden pas na de zomer verwacht. U kan deze dan gerust bij ons bestellen. OR Good afternoon, These units are expected after the summer. You can order them form us at that time... We'll just have to wait! T

This happens to HP all the time. Some stupid distributor leaks information long before HP is ready. Has happened consistently over the last 6-7 years.

You'd think it would have been addressed by now.

Everything seems to be gone. I missed it.

Did someone mirror the pages or save the PDFs?

Did you "decode" my obfuscated email address?

That's probably because the real address is the thing before the @nospam.org, with @ in place of '.ta.' and '.' in place of '.tod.'

Thanks,

So you don't think it was a deliberate 'leak' to get some community feedback, without a more public launch.

The fact that Cyrille de Brebisson has a picture of his baby son's pilot production HP35s shows that there's approval for the unofficial official pre-release.

Says who? Perhaps he just hasn't had his head handed to him on a platter yet. It was probably a very stupid thing for him to do. Things like that can put one's job at risk.

HP does not give approval for leaks, no matter where they come from.

Thanks!

I only got the Google-cache HTML-version of the original PDF. This PDF is much more fun to read!
