Title: A disappointing HP product
Product review: I've been using HP calculators for over 14 years. I bought the 11C, 15C, 41CV, 28C, 28S, 48SX, and 48G+ (my latest). But this one was such a disappointment that I had to return it. The keys are horrible, they have a slippery feel and are hard to press--unlike the quality tactile feel of HP calculators past. The manual is an insult; it was slapped together at the last moment, it seemed. In my opinion, there's no way you could learn how to use this calculator effectively from such an anemic manual if this were your first introduction to an HP. This is not the HP calculator that I know. Although it retains much of the processing engine of the 48 series, the interface is klunky and the fonts are ugly. The worst part is not the things I just mentioned, but the fact that HP have gone backward instead of forward in producing a useful, quality calculator. Don't let this flawed product give you the wrong impression of HP calculators. They usually are top notch.
