HP48 Calculator Emulator

I've been using this emulator for the HP48/49 RPN calculators for a while now:

It works, but the key press code is wacky. I've made an improvement to the code, just a simple change that makes it loads better with button clicks. The last CE version was based off of 1.23, whereas the latest PC build is a lot newer. I don't know why no one has bothered fixing the issues with the PPC version.

If anyone is interested in getting my small modification - or even re-working new code back into the CE project, post here...

I agree with you, the emu48 HP48 & HP49 emulator is not really usable on our Pocket PC. :roll:
That's why I prefer to use a special RPN calculator intended to be used on our devices. It supports VGA and landscape mode too, for happy e800, a730 or iPaq HX4700 owners 8) .
It's named MyPocketCalc and can be found here:

Spiral, I agree that when doing a lot of work, the real thing is better. But I'm not going to carry an HP48 around all the time...

Kornalius, I'll attach just the .exe to this message. You'll have to get the rom and scripts if you don't have them still.

This version had a 'fix' for something to do with wm2003 and the registry. I assume it will also work on 2002 devices. Of course, building it with optimizations on will make an exe that crashes immediately. So this may still be buggy.
