All nice and well, but: How many digressions, before I can cuddle a WP 43S?

And: At some point you need to branch this from the WP 31S to - say - a WP 32S.

I think the concept of a non programmable and tidy RPN machine on the basis of the WP 34S was a very good idea and should be brought to some stage of fruition, before the next iteration takes shape.

I for my part would be very thankful if there'd be a first final release of a WP 31S firmware and some professional overlays.

Doing rather fundamental changes to the basic layout, before the WP 31S is more or less finished, doesn't seem very wise to me.

I fullheartedly concur. For sake of clarity, present status is:
  • WP 31S is released. Please take build 3645 as indicated.
  • This release includes its layout, of course (as stated earlier). Eric wanted to create an overlay some days ago. After posting a draft there were no more news about that, however, if I didn't miss anything. So we've to work with preliminary paper overlays for the time being. No problem.
  • AFAIK, nobody of the WP 31S team said he wants to change the surface of the WP 31S. So it won't change.
Whatever the next (new development) project will be, the WP 31S and the WP 34S are closed models now. I.e. there may be bugfixes, maybe minor additions to particular menus, but no changes of their skins.

In consequence, anything like a "programmable WP 31" won't come - it would be a WP 32S/33S instead.

And about cuddling a WP 43S: well, we'd like to to that as much as you at least, be assured. But even "day X" didn't come so far. So all we can do is continue waiting for the reptiles.
