How about a new programming language? :-)

Specifically, something similar to HP-41 FOCAL with LBLs and GTOs. The
idea is not to replace userRPL but provide something simple that
beginners can start with for small macro type programs.

Bumping for FFT! Might be doing that myself, too... doesn't the 50g have
a built-in FFT as does the 48GX?

writing code to do windowing etc shouldn't be too difficult, could be
done in user rpl as well?

Anything ported from Saturn to ARM

Where is HPGCC 3.0 & the ROM 3.0 supporting it?
Cyrille? Are you still with HP?

I would love to see a new HP iPaq 50G
Could be Maemo, Android, iPhone, Symbian, Series 60
or Microsoft Mobile 7.0 Phone Edition
All it needs is 3G phone etc normal software
HP 50G emulator on ARM (just like now)
but the screen would be a touch screen where you can press the "keys"
then
you could still have RPL/2 and Parisse's xCAS system directly on Phone
Edition
running on about 1GHz (or 600MHz)
and having almost 1/4GB of RAM available

It's time to skip to a faster CPU now
that even ARM (or Texas OMAP which is based on ARM)
has dual CPU's on a die and some have 3D hw
Think about it
As a student I would sign up for a 2 year 3G contract on a phone
witch includes a master calculator software like 50G or Xcas
(which are quite similar)

I am disagree with that: for a calculator I like real keys (much better)
than a touch screen. I also like to have batteries for a few months.
For students a calculator must be different with a cell phone (for
exams...).

What will be great are new graph tools for HP50: fast drawing
for functions (zoom in and out, scrolling in real time), dynamical
geometries. It could be done (I made a bad version of those tings
in HPGCC: but it works...). For surfaces works could be done...

a) some phones have full QWERTY KB - I suppose you could have both:
1) qwerty
2) calculator kb

B) You can always take the SIM out...
