Scientific Calculator, RPN
 

I would love to find a scientific calculator application for my BB8700, especially one that allows reverse-polish-notation (RPN) entry, something like an HP 32S / 42S etc... is there something available?

The calculator app that comes with the 8700 is okay for basic stuff, but there are no trigonometric, exponential, or other useful functions... and its precision is very limited... try entering anything beyond 99 million... to enter 128 million, you need to enter 12.8 million, then multiply by 10.

Still in Beta?
 

I was looking for exactly the same thing and one of the users in this forum, patrickh, sent me an app he was working on about 7 months ago. It works well, some minor display inconsistecies, but I never heard from him again. Anyway, I have it on my BB and it is the only caculator I use due to the RPN. Patrickh, if you're out there, any update for us?

I am still here.. I just have no time to work on it.. What update/feature do you need?

got it!
 

Patrick got me a copy, thanks a million, this is a big improvement over the calculator that comes with the BB, and it uses RPN entry!!!!

Way to go, Patrick! (y) (y)

Where can one find this RPN calculator? I would like to download and checkout.

Thank you,

I've got a bunch of engineers here that would be giddy to get a decent RPN calculator on their blackberries. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Add me to the list of those interested in RPN. Any link to this app?

I PM'ed Wrenfroe and ifonline with the link.. send me a PM if you want to be on the beta..

There are some free tools out there, guys! Check out this one http://www.bradgoodman.com/blackberry/ -- scientific calculator, engineering calcuator, triginometric calculator - and more! so far the best though not 100% user-friendly.

I would really love to have an RPN scientific calculator, thanks
 

Also, does anyone know of a good simple FREE Financial calculator too?

I'd like to get on you beta list also, been looking for a RPN calc for my BB.

Awesome, makes me wish I would use it. Good luck on the app Patrick!

RPN calculator
 

I've been searching for an RPN calculator (preferably one that feels like one of the HP models). How can I obtain/purchase a copy?

BTW, I currently use Bizmathica from ShrunkenHead Software and it works fine...does financial math as well as trig, etc., however it is not RPN.

PM me for beta of my RPN calculator.. It's a scientific / engineering / programmer's calculator rather than financial.

I'am new to Blackberry, I downloaded the rc.jad file for the RPN calculator, but how do I get it into my Blackberry 8700?
