George Wang asks how other HP 48 "E" revs tactile feedback feels. 
George, one day before sending in my rev "A", it got demolished (long,
sad story).  So I bought a new one.  Rev "E".  Very clicky, far more than
the "A" had been (although I pound my keys, so the "A" may have been
beaten to squishiness over time).  Since HP obviously doesn't run over to
the assembly line and yank a 48 hot off the press to send to folks
requesting a rom upgrade, my guess is that all the squishy "E"s were from
the same batch.

Those with squishy upgraded "E" 48's could check it out by posting their
serial numbers...
