I'm most interested in a scientific calculator that can also do hex/octal/binary. This is all for fun and learning now. I recently retired from my IT job, where I used the 32s daily, and found the WP34s to be a great help in doing subnetting, etc.

I'm not interested in graphing or RPL-based machines like the 48 or 50.

I'm torn between the desire to have something "just like" a real HP device vs. wanting a program that uses the iPad's larger screen to better present the complexity of the device, making it easier to use. I love the WP34s, but if I don't use if for a few days, I forget where half the stuff is on it. :-)

Given your background, the following two (paid) landscape HP calculator emulators may be fun and useful to have. I enjoy and can recommend them both.
