Valentin, would you mind posting a photo of your device running the actual calculator? I would assume the keys would be rather small seeing how small the screen of your device is.

dalupus, thank you for your advice. I just like the shape and look of the legacy HP keys like the ones on our 28S and many other calcs. Our 28S has a wide ENTER key, and all the keys are not perfectly flat but have a unique downward slant in the bottom side which, for some reason in my crazy retro-loving brain, looks nifty to my eye. That's partly why the look of the Prime's keys appeal to me far more than those of the 50G (no "paperbag" required). But yes, I am aware there is a functionality difference between the 50G and the Prime.

Since we're on the subject of the 50G, and since no one has yet commented on the part of my previous post where I ask about "SpeedUI & Meta Kernel," I'd like to ask if any of you 50G users have installed Tree Browser or GUIMES or other software found here?

If you have, and if you also have used an HP48 with Meta Kernel and/or SpeedUI, how would they compare? (Clearly, the 50G would still be faster, but I speed of usability and the UI.)

Thank you.
