1) Electronics CE HP 35s Scientific Calculator by Hewlett Packard. It´s good to have a hand calculator with reverse polish notation. I had been struggling through trying to use a regular calculator. This calculator is taking a little getting used to. I would still trade it even for the first HP calculator I ever owned. It did everything I wanted it to and was about the size of a cell phone. I would also trade it even for my last HP calculator, which was the same size and layout as their current financial calculator. I don´t like the size or the shape of this calculator. I think HP is missing the boat by not producing a small inexpensive handheld calculator($19.95?)with reverse Polish notation. I know lots of engineers that would use a small one in addition to their scientific calculator. Since reverse Polish notation follows the normal thought process when doing mathematical computations, I think HP could really merchandise a small calculator to school students. I´ve never met anyone who had used reverse Polish notation that wanted to go back to the other style calculator.¤

I have been an HP calculator fan since the mid 1970´s. In fact when I went to school during this peiod I used the very first calculator the HP 35 which used single stroke button commands and cost $400 dollars. The HP 35s was designed in honor of the famous HP 35 hence the HP 35s. The large contrast adjustable 2 line LCD display is very readable at any angle. The keyboard is laid out in a very human interface way with the famous tactical feel buttons. It uses two inexpensive coin cells for power and retains all memory unless you want to clear it. It has every function an engineer/scientist could want. I love the jet black body and all the button labels which are very clear and stand out and they do not rub off even after years of use. The only negative remarks would be there are so many functions you have to sometimes search for the fucntion button you want. And unlike the vintage HP 11, HP 12 the manual is on CD. I like browsing a paper manual but most manufacturers give you a CD or PDF online manual now.

Overall this HP 35s is 5 ***** in every catagory and I can not figure out how they can sell it so inexpensively for the quality and value you pay for.

HP lover HP 11, 12, 35s, and i just bought the HP 50g,

3) Electronics CE HP 35s Scientific Calculator by Hewlett Packard. My grandparents gave me an HP 32s for Christmas way back in ´88 or ´89. Other than not knowing RPN and having to learn it, it quickly became my favorite calculator. In ´03 or ´04, it finally quit on me, and I wanted to replace it with the same model, but couldn´t find it.

The 35s is a step up from the 32s, once you get used to the two shift keys and the placement of the functions. I had the same trouble getting used to the 35s as I did with the 32s. But the learning curve is not too steep, and it´s definitely worth it. I can now do all of the same things that I did on the 32s, using the same RPN, except there are several enhancements, like a buffer rollback, in case I make a mistake, a function creator, which is useful if you want to program a function that you use a lot, and expanded units conversion (lbs to kgs, C to F, gallons to liters, etc). And I finally found the very useful x<>y key; and the % change key, both of which I use heavily in my business.

It comes with a nice zip-to-close cover and a thick manual that I´ll probably never read but will find useful if I ever get to it. It´s programmable, and beyond the basic function programming, it can do statistics, including linear regression. If you have a function programmed, it can do integration.

Inputting programs is intuitive: You just mainly do the operations as you would normally, inserting variables where appropriate, and then you save the program.

If you get caught in a situation where you´d like to use the calculator in class, but get checked to see that it is not storing any values, you can use the clear memory keys while the teacher is watching. I did this on my Ham Radio exam, and the prognosticator found it appropriate enough. You can clear all memory, or individual parts (like the sampled statistics, the numbers stored in memory [there are 26 storage locations], or just the programs).

All in all, this calculator is probably not the most intuitive on the market, but for its price compared to what it can do, I wouldn´t get anything else.¤
