Actually the developers didn't expect that either - they simply had asked for the effort/cost of a pilot batch.48GX wrote: ↑Fri Jun 12, 2020 4:45 amI didn’t expect this as a plot point.

Re: WP 43S Pilot Run (Poll!)
I’m not understanding. Why is this different than ordering hardware for a 42?
Also, can I get in on the Beta if it goes?

Electronically, it's identical to a DM42.
Mechanically, it's identical to a DM42.
On its surface, it's different: different print on keys, bezel, glass, and on the rear side. Shouldn't be a big deal - but apparently the deal didn't know so it became a big one unexpectedly.
Certainly. As soon as ...

I believe I understand you now. I misunderstood. Let’s hope they get this worked out sooner than later.

Technically everything is settled. Thus, the open issues aren't logical but psycho-logical (looks like the opposite).

Re: WP 43S Pilot Run (Poll!)
Maybe some people are, like me, more interrested by purchasing the brand new Ultimate RPN WP43S rather than their great simulators of old gen HPs ?

Re: WP 43S Pilot Run (Poll!)
I'm interested in BOTH! I'd also buy a recreation of a 65 or 67 if anyone ever made one as long as it could use real mag cards.

Re: WP 43S Pilot Run (Poll!)
Lets start with a company that recreates the mag cards for a reasonable price. That should be very easy considering the mag stripes on bank cards are the same. I am afraid It wont happen simply because a usb or sd-card interface is much more practical than a mag card reader (but less fun I agree).toml_12953 wrote: ↑Sat Jun 13, 2020 7:18 pmI'm interested in BOTH!

Thanks for the explanations, Walter. I think that all of us understand you now. I hope that all of the issues can be resolved in the near future.
