HP 12C/15C emulators for iPhone by HP Message #1 Posted by Peter Heberer on 28 July 2009, 7:22 p.m. Hi, I just noticed that there's a couple of HP calculator emulators available as iPhone apps. Some are made by HP itself, some by others. Here's a link to the HP page with links to the apps: HP emulators (by HP) Regards, Peter

Re: HP 12C/15C emulators for iPhone by HP Message #5 Posted by Les Wright on 8 Aug 2009, 1:37 a.m., in response to message #4 by Reth I think the proprietary HP apps are pricey, given that the Tom Fors versions are somewhat cheaper and seem fine to me. I have SCI15C, though I must confess I use it little. Some have suggested that by spending the extra and supporting the HP app we may encourage HP to release the 15C anew by showing interest. I must admit that I don't know if I buy into that logic. And, yes, Reth, the 42s simulator, particularly in its most recent release, is so much more pleasurable to use, and cheaper too. The program I/O is the deal breaker for me. i41cx+ is a bit more expensive, but just keeps getting better, and is a must have for the aficionado. But for daily use, 42s is my fave. Les

42s emulator for iPhone is brilliant and getting better all the time! Message #6 Posted by Reth on 9 Aug 2009, 1:14 a.m., in response to message #5 by Les Wright IMO 42s is on its way to its second life, with the 4 line display (+ 4 line AVIEW is on Thomas' to-do list) and dynamic overlay keys plus practically unlimited memory and great speed and already excellent IO cappabilities, it's my favorite too. What's more - it's a living thing and I believe future improvements will follow. I take the opportunity to recommend it to all iPhone/iPod Touch owners among HPCalc fans who still don't have it. Cheers, Reth
