HP30b cable I can borrow? - eri - 11-05-2013 No response to original post so editing post into a broader request. Anyone willing to loan their HP30b programming cable to an internet stranger? Happy to pay postage, etc. I'd also be willing to mail you my 4 calculators if you want to do the flashing. Thanks! Original Post Title: hp30b cable in seattle area? Hi All, I've 4 hp30b that I wish to reprogram as wp34s. Is there someone in the Seattle area that can lend me a cable? Thanks!

Re: HP30b cable I can borrow? - eri - 11-08-2013 Bump?
Re: HP30b cable I can borrow? - Walter B - 11-08-2013 I think you'll admit Germany being a bit outside of your area of interest.

Re: HP30b cable I can borrow? - eri - 11-08-2013 Not even! Germany is fascinating! Kant, Hegel, Goethe and Thomas Mann! Awesome Rieslings and mead. Speck! I was also excited to read that in some places in Germany you can now purchase a beer that isn't an under-hopped lager: But yes, it would be crazy for me to solicit a cable from Europa.
Really a shame if this project dries out because of cable availability. All those poor 30b that are pining for conversion!
Re: HP30b cable I can borrow? - Walter B - 11-09-2013 Thanks for your kind words about my home country :-) Quote:Pssst - I'll tell you a secret: those cables may be used more than once ;-) And there are even (at least two) sites where you can order a WP 34S. Please see the manual. Regarding good beers: I'm not an expert in this topic but I know there are really many breweries here and many kinds of beer - like in Czech Republic. So I'm convinced you could get good cool beers in almost every little town here at any time for centuries - it's different at other places on this planet. Others may confirm that with better personal expertise. d:-)

Re: HP30b cable I can borrow? - Paul Berger (Canada) - 11-09-2013 Have you found a cable or someone to flash your calculators yet? If not I can send you my cable and you may keep it. I will flash my second 30B before sending it, for some reason I have not done that yet, Lord know what use a financial calculator is. My first one has been fitted with Harald's USB cards so I will not need it for that one and If I was really stuck I am pretty sure I could construct a reasonable facsimile of one of these cables.
Re: HP30b cable I can borrow? - eri - 11-10-2013 Yes please! How about we declare this cable belongs to the community: I'll mail it on for whoever needs it next, along with their email so the community can find them.
Paul: I've sent you an email with my mailing address.
Re: HP30b cable I can borrow? - Paul Berger (Canada) - 11-10-2013 Hi got your email. The community cable idea sounds like a good plan.
