The keyboard is a mess:

- Alpha keys are not mapped to the printout on the calc ('A' is on F1 and not on VARS)
- ALPHA is left shift and ',' is ALPHA
- SIN is ^
- COS is square root
- TAN, LN, LOG are SIN, COS, TAN

And so on..

Thank you, that confirms the hardware is connected identical to the 50g hardware.
Regarding layout, I didn't change anything, so for the time being you'll have to look at a picture of a 50g to know where things are. The idea is to get proposals to organize things better on this machine.
For example, in Alpha mode in newRPL you can type numbers and letter at the same time, so having the letters on the numbers is a no. Also, there's one letter on the Alpha key (the comma, or tick mark whatever that key is), this cannot be there, needs to be a separate key.
Ideas welcome.
