HP Gadget... Message #1 Posted by Giancarlo (Italy) on 11 June 2008, 2:29 a.m. Hi Forum. I stumbled upon this: http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/11/hps-quick-calc-cant-fool-us/ and thought I'd share.... Best regards. Giancarlo

Re: HP Gadget... Message #3 Posted by Manatee on 11 June 2008, 8:57 a.m., in response to message #1 by Giancarlo (Italy) Hmm... I think my iPhone already does that. Looks pretty cool though. Does everything my Datamath 2500 did -- and is less cumbersome on the keyring.

Re: HP Gadget... Message #4 Posted by Ron G. on 11 June 2008, 11:35 p.m., in response to message #1 by Giancarlo (Italy) Clicking on the image leads to four other calcs I didn't know existed. I guess I've been in a cave. Edited: 11 June 2008, 11:40 p.m.

No real HP Gadget... Message #5 Posted by Raymond Del Tondo on 12 June 2008, 12:30 a.m., in response to message #4 by Ron G. The other three (OfficeCalc 100/200 and Quick Calc) are just relabelled $5 calcs from an oem supplier, and the so-called PrintCal is a maybe $10 relabelled calc from the same oem supplier. Similar to the 6s/Solar , 8s, 9s, 9g, 10s, 30s (?) and maybe some more. Also note the inconsistent naming schema: OfficeCalc, PrintCal (missing final c), Quick Calc (the latter with two words)... I wouldn't waste any more thoughts about them. Edited: 12 June 2008, 12:37 a.m.
