I loved my HP 48G when I was in school (even if it was much slower than the Ti 81 it replaced when it came to graphing). I regret throwing it away because of the nostalgia, but I don't feel a need for using it these days.

As such I am genuinely curious about what rewards you get from using an engineering calculator in your work. That's an honest question: I would really like to have an excuse to get my hands on a 48G again!

I broke the screen of my HP48GX when it fell in the crack of the passenger seat of my truck about 20 years ago and I am still pissed about it.
Try Droid48 on your phone. It works for me after I cracked a number key of my HP48GX.
Oh, I’ve tried using emulators, but without the actual physical keyboard it’s just not the same.
