Just for grins, I entered the two numbers into the WP 34S and after multiplying, got a different result. I then tried Wolfram Alpha and got the same result as the WP 34S, which was puzzling. Then noticed that the first number in the sentence was missing the digit "4" at the end in "12345" as was shown in the actual code example (which had the "4"). After putting in the 4, the 34S, Wolfram and the 29-digit product above all were in agreement and my faith was restored in double-precision mode of the 34S :-)

Thanks for catching that typo, Jake! It has been corrected in my original posting.
