Rekenwinkel claims to have it in stock: http://www.derekenwinkel.nl/hp-prime-grafische-rekenmachine.html

I hope they fixed the formatting of the exponents :)

I have no concern about this. It seems very easy to correct this bug. Also remind it's "simulated images", and may be the problem is here

Not a bug but I also hope that the powers ( ² ) will be some pixels lower. They are too high here

Yeah, well, it would be easy to correct the PSE bug in the 15C Limited Edition, too, but we haven't seen that fix yet (and probably never will).

There was a PDF with screenshots, rather than marketing-generated images, from the Prime, and that had the exponents aligned correctly, horizontally. (Still a few pixels too high, though.)

I think you'll find out they don't have it soon.

Others are saying it will be available in October. http://www.thecalculatorstore.com/epages/eb9376.sf/en_US/?ObjectPath=/Shops/eb9376/Products/%22HP%20Prime%22

Will it be available in the US sooner? I am currently in the US and would like to bring one back home with me.

Is the HP39gII officially available in the US yet? Just curious. I can't find it for sale on HP's US website.

Rekenwinkel just responded me that they would have the Prime available in September. So it is *not* in stock.
