Wow, what a nightmare! I am trying to complain about HP completely abandoning is RPN users with its latest HP Prime Calculator, but there is no "Calculator" board and HP doesn't recognize my Calculator's serial number to get me to the right place. It's like HP thinks that its calculators don't exist. And there is no way to "Contact Support" without providing my serial number which your website refuses to believe exists!
I thought HP had learned its lesson about straying too far from tradition when it created its 50g and decided to reorganize its keyboard by changing the double-wide "Enter" key to a single-wide one RELOCATED to the bottom of the calculator. That threw years of muscle memory out the window for me. When I saw that the HP Prime had reintroduced its traditional layout, I thought "Okay, they've returned to their senses." So I bought one. That was a mistake. The HP Prime uses RPN for about 10% of its functionality. Virtually all of its programming, symbolic calcs, and most other things of interest are done in CAS. If I wanted to do things in CAS, I would just buy a TI graphing calculator.
Here is my question: Does HP have any plans to update its HP Prime Graphing Calculator to work fully in RPN mode? Or is it going to remain undifferentiated?
