I have been an HP calculator fanatic since I first turned on my
old HP-55!  I am curious about the direction handheld will take as
PC's become smaller and more affordable.  When a notebook PC weighs in
at 2 or 3 lbs, has a color VGA LCD or better and bosts an internal
modem, 33 Mhz 486 with a math coprocessor and 10 megabytes, who will
be buying calculators?  I am assuming of course, that this is quite
a few years down the road and will cost less than $1000.
