I recently ran across a useful booklet called "The HP-28 Pocket Book".
I should say in advance that I have no connection with the author or
publisher. The format is about 6" by 3.5". I have reproduced the back
cover below. There are a total of 40 pages.

Ashwood Drive, Corvallis, OR 97330 USA Please note that it is also available from Hewlett Packard. It's known as HP Part No. 92222G. It's a really handy book to have around. It's just smaller than the calculator, so it fits in the case perfectly. And it provides decent (if brief) examples of some of the common & rough features you'd want to use. (E.G. - Plotting & Solving to find the roots of an equation, Differentiation & Minimum Finding, both Symbolic & Numerical Integration). It gives enough to work with, but not enought that the book weighs 72 Kg (:-)). I'm having severe line noise problems, so I'll sign off here. Excellent book.
