Yes, I've noticed their newer calculators now use the same style rubber or plastic keys as everyone else uses without that nice snap that the old had. I loved being able to key things in without looking. Also, the battery life was downright astonishing. I recall going most of a year on a set of three AAAs. These days I tend to use the Droid48 emulator (one of my favorite apps) on my Android. It lacks the tactile feel, obviously, but makes up for it by being always in my pocket -- similar to phone cameras vs. good dedicated cameras.
