RE: My first newbie WP 34S question
The limitation on label characters is not a deal breaker IMO and I was just curious to know why it was so much less than the 42S. The 34S does add some really nice 32SII features such as direct keyboard polar<>rectangular conversions and the hyperbolic functions also don't require searching through menus the way the 42S does. And it also includes four dedicated hot keys, which default to other commonly used functions when not in use. So, on balance it is the best overall keystroke programmable RPN scientific calculator ever made.

I have found some curious differences between the number ranges in the 34S .vs. the 30b, such as the maximum real number in the 34S is 1E384, whereas in the 30b it is 1E499. Presumably, this is due to differences in word size ?
