RE: NP-41 Emulator (may be)
I will definitely by a NP-41S, but not necessarily in the very first batch, because I prefer a mature product.
My votes: 1) White PCB. It will nicely complement my NP-25. 2) The battery on the top side seems a bit weird at first glance, but it doesn't bother me a lot. One advantage I can see with this design is the ability to use the NP-41S without a case. If the battery is on the bottom, the case is almost necessary. 3) Two Enter keys, for aesthetical reasons, because I like when the keys are perfectly aligned in a keyboard. Since there will be two versions, NP-41S and NP-41, you can make two different layouts. The NP-41 layout is perfect for the NP-41! Here are some comments I've already made about the writings: - The "E-" "E+" and "CLE" writing should be replaced by "Σ-" "Σ-" and "CLΣ", like in the last versions of the NP-25: http://www.hpmuseum.org/forum/attachment.php?aid=2702 - Also, the "R v" writing to simulate the "R↓" key is not very pleasing. In the NP-25 of the link above, the writing is much better. - "x<y?" should be replaced by "x<=y?". I understand that space was limited on the NP-25 PCB, but there is plenty of room in the NP-41.
