While I was waiting for a fire sale of the 50g like we have seen it in the USA, the price was kept high and then went through the roof. It is actually the end IMO. That post was from 2015, and isn't quite correct anymore: newRPL has the 50g, 39gs and 40gs as targets, which are at a much lower price point (with limitations, I'll give you that). The Prime version will come (eventually), but the way I see it is nobody will ever substitute the Prime original firmware because it's really good. The only solution is to have both operating systems on-calc and switch between them (by turning the calc off and back on with a special set of key presses). Actually I should not say "both" but "all of them", since there's now the Numworks OS as well as a candidate. It isn't as far-fetched as many would think, I've been doing some work in that area but there's nothing to show yet, and with my current work load I'd say don't expect it for Christmas either, but it will happen. |
