hp 20B keypad - JDonley - 04-29-2009

I have one of the early HP 20B's and the keypad is pretty ordinary....can anyone tell me if the newer units have improved keypads?

thanks

I am unaware of any changes to the 20b keyboard.

Mine is 6 months old and I don’t really like the keyboard, there’s no positive click feel and if you hit a button obliquely, it tilts but doesn’t always register.

I don’t know if the keyboard was worse in early models. It works, if you’re careful, but I don’t trust blind key pressing. I would have much preferred the keys of the 12cp.
