So using an RPN calculator gives you remorse over
buying a K3? Or over not buying one?
I like my K3 and using RPN :-)

keyboard changes to a proper calculator. It has no programmability,
but it is a fine RPN calculator.

I’m still using a HP-41 and I still have a functional HP-45 (works off the
power supply). RPN works for me…
FWIW, if you have an Apple iPhone, you can also get an app that provides a full
emulation of the HP-41. It works very well with the look and feel of the HP-41 and
it allows me to have a “HP-41" with me all the time. The app is named
“i41CX-RPN Calculator” from AL Software. There is also a version that has a printer
function as well. Check the Apple Store or the developer’s website
(http://alsoftiphone.com) for more information if interested…

While nowhere near the saddest day in my life, when I realized the keypad on my
HP41X was terminal, and there was no way to replace it,I sprang for an HP
48GX,. While it's RPN, only Calc I can use anymore, I ve never really
understood it.
That 41 was perfect, usable even if you didn't have the book with you. Sort of
like a K3.

Hi David,
It was my second programmable
computer -- my first, about four years earlier, was an HP41.
