The new Hp seems to be a wonderful machine. The trouble is that I don't have that much money to invest and I like my hp-28s. Can we have some more posts of programs and ideas for it too..

The good news is that once the hardware of the HP-48SX is known well and we all get back to writing software, much of the HP-48SX programs will run on an HP-28, since they share a common language. In fact, all of the HP-28 programs posted will run on a 48 (well, most.) Dan Allen

[Stuff deleted about HP48 invading this newsgroup] OK, so the HP48 is a great machine. Let's keep this newsgroup clean from messages like: "I only wanted to say that my manual says ROM revision A, but if I look on the inside of the box it was delivered in there is a B, written by hand. Does that mean that my HP48 has the new ROM?" ...or... "Hey, this machine is great. By for now. By the way, this is my first posting to the net." Not to mension all articles with panic-smelling "HP28 For sale" messages. -- Stefan Lindmark Email: d88-sli@nada.kth.se Snail-mail: Don't even bother... Unsubscribed to newsgroup eunet.jokes.

It seems like only weeks ago that we were seeing _exactly_ the same complaints from people who thought that there were too many postings for the HP-28S, and not enough about other handhelds. How short people's memories are -- It _was_ only weeks ago. "There are too many postings about machine _X_ and not enough about _my_ machine _Y_" sounds to me like sour grapes. It was okay when the HP-28S was king of the heap, but once another machine becomes more popular for postings, it's not? When did comp.sys.handhelds become comp.sys.hp28? Sean Malloy | ". . .

Baloney! If this group is for questions on handheld machines, and for tips and sowftare for them, then anything that people want to post about the 48sx is fair game. It's a handheld, isn't it? Do you think that if the 48sx traffic moves off of the newsgroup that the number of non-48sx messages will go up? Hardly. When the excitement dies down (in a year or two :-)), then the 48sx will get as much traffic as HP's top-of-the-line machine usually gets, with the addition of other info on other machines. We could be really nice to folks who don't want to hear about the machine and put '48sx' in the keywords list..... --Mike
