While I have had HP calculators since HP 32E and from there thorough 11C, 28S, 48G, 49GX, 50G and some emulators, it's clear to me that HP RPN programming is somehow common through the previous models until this. I really like all the features available on this model (particularly G2), but not being able to run RPN programs really challenges this model as it requires to rewrite mostly all the old school programs.

This is certainly one of the weak points of the model, a fact that is related to the actual target group, namely schoolchildren and students. The calculator was designed as a teaching aid from the start, and engineers and scientists were not necessarily seen as potential buyers.
