Valentin,
I guess our website can take credit for putting that company under PRESSURE to come out with the HP10C and HP15C. I guess, I was wrong by saying that the HP15C will never come back!!! I am (in the words of the Fonz) suuzuuuuuu!!!
Any plans for an HP41C and HP42S?????
:-)

Valentin,
I must admit I almost fainted at a first reading of your e-mail -
I hadn't seen the smiley at the end of it!!!
Great joke!
Best regards.

Indeed, these new machines look as if they can really grind out some answers!

Hi, Valentin --
Thanks for excellent gag, which I might call a "teaser prank", since I don't know a better term.
Besides the "meat for thought" and the winking emoticon, the sharp-eyed among us might have noted Valentin's omission of the hyphens in the model names ("not only of the HP15C but the HP10C as well") as well as the curious statement "getting rid of other (capabilities) which are best served by modern computationally able devices" -- as though anything ought to have been removed outright from the HP-15C.
Yes, there were ample clues that the information was not to be taken at face value.
