Summary: Okay, so I tried to think up a title that would make this seem a little more interesting than the bland review of a calculator that it is. Having failed miserably in my attempt, I'll go straight to some information about the 49G in the hope that I'll ... read more

Cons: A little expensive, bad color (blue), Can be slow if you dont use built-in functions
Summary: I first started out using a TI-85 in early high school. Then I switched to the HP48GX. At first it was difficult to use because I was not use to the RPN. By the end of the day, I saw why RPN is so much more efficient.
