I am playing with it since beta testing and, even if it is not yet capable to replace my 48/50g (and I am not sure it will ever be)

Side question: How does someone learn RPL in 2023? My last full-time calculator was the HP-42S around 1996. I left the calculator world behind until about 6 months ago. I keep reading about how great RPL is, but as far as I can tell, no HP calculator currently in production uses RPL. The HP Prime seems to have its own language. The 50G gets great reviews, but is no longer in production, and seems fairly rare and expensive on eBay, in the $120 to $175 range.

Short answer: i am using RPL calculators since 1989.
The learning curve was steep, but after one week i could use my 28s in most of its power.
On the converse, i struggle a little when switching to RPN (35s, Plus42)
