Got the 35s Message #1 Posted by Arne Halvorsen (Norway) on 19 Sept 2007, 2:27 p.m. Okey, 2 weeks from Spain to Norway, that what was expected, but one week from Oslo to Bergen! Had to be handled by custom, but still... Anyway, was sure not to write a first impression thread since all been said, but here goes... 1. Build to me look quality except the display: Key response feels just as good as on my old hp-41cv but when I was to dust away some small particle a lot of black shadows happened on screen: The tiny plastic plate easily bounch down on lcd area to create this effect. No finger pointing to the answer on this babe! 2. LOVE the holster!!! Reason: I am addicted to the small moleskin notebooks. I typical hold them steady with one hand and write the other. Having the 35s in its home I can work it the same way; its an open book! It was first after working with it for ten mins I realized I was using it just like my noteboks... It will stay there I think. Beside the screen thing it seems I have a new friend, still getting my 41 fixed though :-) (Randy, if u read, sending 41 gets a bit delayed... :-) Hey, I bet this is the first 35s in Norway!

Re: Got the 35s Message #2 Posted by Jim Creybohm on 19 Sept 2007, 3:30 p.m., in response to message #1 by Arne Halvorsen (Norway) Glad you are happy Arne, after your long wait! I find myself enjoying it more and more, with the exception of the labelling of any programs I have written, and the somewhat asnine manner of entering text into the calc. Otherwise welcome back, HP! So, what are ya gonna do for an encore?

Re: Got the 35s Message #3 Posted by Chuck on 19 Sept 2007, 4:31 p.m., in response to message #1 by Arne Halvorsen (Norway) Arne. Both of my calculators had nasty black LCD box smudges when I touched the screen, BUT ONLY ONCE. I purposely smudged my second one back and forth to fill it black. After it faded, all is perfect. I can touch, point, and push on the screen now and nothing happens. I'm not sure why it happens once, but it does.

Re: Got the 35s Message #4 Posted by Arne Halvorsen (Norway) on 19 Sept 2007, 5:59 p.m., in response to message #3 by Chuck Darn interseting! And thank you! I did go all over display, and now its gone! Edited: 19 Sept 2007, 6:15 p.m.

Re: Got the 35s Message #5 Posted by Jim Creybohm on 19 Sept 2007, 6:12 p.m., in response to message #3 by Chuck Its funny you mention that Chuck. I thought that this had happened when I got mine. It hasn't happened since, so I though maybe it was my imagination.

My HP calc blog. Message #6 Posted by Arne Halvorsen (Norway) on 21 Sept 2007, 4:30 a.m., in response to message #1 by Arne Halvorsen (Norway) Since I now actual have the possibility to do some good old rpn programming I have started a hp calc blog. Forum is great for communication but a blog is a nice device for organizing resources.
