I'm a working engineer and I tote my 42S around in my shirt pocket. I keep my 48 at home for hacking and just it never ceases to amaze me. One thing you didn't mention is how nice the 42S is with different number bases, I hate the 28/48 # prefix business. The 42S is an awful lot for the money and unfortunately I'm still better at programming ithan the 48.
