I got my Revision E replacement for the HP48sx earlier this week
but I noticed that it was different from the Rev. A version...

The keys are NOT "clicky" and does not provide a positive
tactile feedback that was in my revision A machine...I noticed
that all the keys were very "mushy" except for the 0 key and
the ENTER key...

I was just wondering if folks out there with Revision E machine
also have this "mushy" keyboard feeling... I really liked
the "clicky" feeling in my old machine and I'm wondering if I should
get it sent back in for a replacement.  I've always had
this fear that "mushy" keys would mean that the keys would wear
out faster than the "clicky" keys.... If this is so, then I'd
like to get a replacement...

Thanks
George
