On the other hand it seems totally disorganized I really have a much harder time to find functions than on the 48G. I also see the appearance of these list menu I didn't like on the prime to the detriment of a better use of Fn keys.
Screen is better than the 48g for sure but I'm not impressed, I suspect that it could be the same as the 48g when it is 20 years old. Keyboard is surprisingly better than I expected though it does an ugly sticky noise like scotch tape, and of course this ridiculous tiny ENTER key but I'm not going to reopen this chapter.

Just first impressions...

Tugdual,

I received my 50g a little over a week ago, so I'm on a similar learning curve. For $78, This is insanely capable.

Have you found the function catalog yet? Right Shift 'SYMB' key (row 4, key 4), orange 'CAT' over the key. Most of the functions are available here in alphabetical order. The Advanced User's Reference Manual lists them with explination and examples in Chapter 3, which is 304 pages by itself.

Function 'Minehunt' in the catalog is my favorite !!!

Some of the functions have a help screen 'Tool' 'Next' 'Help' will get you there.
