- golem14 7y agoThe HP store shows many of their remaining 7 (!) calculator models out of stock quite often. I'm not taking any bets on how long HP is going to make any calculators at all. I feel sad every time I visit their store... They already stopped making any kind of graphing calculator, apparently.
- smabie 7y agoHp prime?
- golem14 7y agoNo longer on their (hp) store. Still can get unsold inventory on eg amazon
- SkyMarshal 7y agoHP ported their calculators to iPhone and Android apps. Most people who want an HP calc probably just use those now instead, except for the few who want the tactile feel of calculator buttons.
- metaphor 7y agoFor the discerning STEM student/professional, 15c is the only relevant RPN emulator on mobile officially released by HP and it's an overpriced disappointment IMHO. HP didn't even extend a courtesy reach-around for our CS/CpE brethren with 16c integration despite their $16.99! Even if you were in the market circa 2011 to pre-order one (or a few) 15c LE--which came with a copy of the desktop app--you'd still have to pony up even more for the mobile app! On Android, I'd highly recommend skipping the "official" HP garbage and supporting CalcTastic Plus[1] for a mere $0.99. Even the free version makes the HP emulator look like a complete joke. I've been rolling with a 35s as workhorse since undergrad days, but couldn't care less if today's zombie HP literally disappeared from the market tomorrow.
