I have a small piece of info this time!

For any HP28S (and C, I think) people out there, Sears sells (in the hardware department; no humor intended), a leather pouch that fits the calc almost like a glove.  It is of a yellow-brownish color, and is DURABLE.  Recently, I had received my first EduCALC catalog, and was horrified at the price of their hard leather cases for HP28's.  Being a student, I had the problem licked about a year and 1/2 before!  The only problem with this pouch is that it does not have anything that would close its top.  Howe







ver, it is about $20 (low for HP-related stuff).  It is made from "top grain cowhide", and is reinforced with rivetsand stitching.  So far, it has protected my calc through a year of high school (labs and all), and 1st quarter of college.  The "part number" is 9.4544.  


Now, also I had heard that there is a kind of HP BBS out there, so plase can anyone direct me to it ( give me a fully qualified domain name, or an IP number to use, and how to get in (talk, ftp, other?)).  

Also, please do me a favor and send me (if it is not exceedingly hard for you), a copy of Tetris for 28S (or where to get it and how).



Thank you for your help!


Also, please tell me more on my previous post about 48Super Xpensive calc!
