Just wanted to pass this on - A fairly reliable source says that soon (by Spring??) we shall see a third-party U.S. company offering 256K and 512K RAM cards for the HP48. Bank-switching software will be supplied along with the cards in library form and will be less than a half Kbyte long. Prices look good....being less than 250 for 256K and less than 400 for 512K. Just thought I'd pass that on in case anyone was thinking about large amounts of storage for their machines. Jake Schwartz

We sure have come a long way from the HP-65 when you need bank switching because you've used up the 512K memory space of the processor. I hope HP has a better calculator processor in the works (other than the 8088). Mark Adler madler@pooh.caltech.edu
