The closest thing to a credit-card-sized RPN calculator that I can remember
was the Sinclair Scientific, which was out in the mid 1970's. Several 
outfits (Sinclair, Novus, Rockwell I believe and others) had some models
that used RPN, however, all to my knowledge abandoned it fairly quickly.
Funny how many of the calculator emulator programs for PC's now emulate
HP RPN machines. I wonder if the users of those PC packages also bought
RPN machines when there were no PC's.....
