I may order a HP Prime G1 NewRPL overlay one of these days too. How do RPL lovers like NewRPL? I'd really love to have NewRPL on the DMs.

Thanks for the positive feedback!

I really like newRPL and used it almost exclusively before I got a DM42 (which is currently running DB48x). The DM42 is my go-to now. I have newRPL on a 39gx at work, and I have it on a 50g at my home office, along with a Prime G1 flashed with newRPL. I really prefer newRPL on the non-prime hardware - the battery drain issue is a bit frustrating. If I forget to charge it for more than a week or so, it will drain completely and I have to restore it with the SDRESTORE command. Functionally it works great, but the toggling of the menu buttons gets confusing sometimes.

If you are using the Prime G1 with newRPL frequently it's probably easier to remember to charge it when needed.
