HP Unveils 25th Anniversary Edition 12c Calculator
HP introduced a special edition HP 12c Calculator, commemorating the 25th anniversary of the iconic consumer electronics product that has remained virtually unchanged since its debut.
The 25th Anniversary Edition HP 12c Platinum Financial Calculator comes in an elegant black and silver design with an engravable metal plate on the back and an embossed leather pouch. Additional features include the ability to easily switch between Reverse Polish Notation(1) and algebraic mode and undo and backspace buttons. Up to six times faster and with four times more memory than the original, the collectors’ item will only be available until the end of 2006 or while supplies last.
Instantly recognized for its unique horizontal layout, the HP 12c sold today acts and looks just as it did when first introduced in 1981, with the exception of improved performance due to modern components. Valued for its reliability, proven accuracy and long battery life, the HP 12c has become an industry standard in the business and finance community with more than 15 million units sold to date. It is also the only pure Reverse Polish Notation calculator on the market today.
In 2003, HP introduced the HP 12c Platinum, an enhanced version of the HP 12c financial calculator. The HP 12c Platinum boasts increased memory to allow for more keystroke programming steps and offers more built-in functions, including the option of standard algebraic mode as well as Reverse Polish Notation mode.
The 25th Anniversary Edition HP 12c Platinum Financial Calculator is available immediately for a suggested retail price of $79(3) online at HP, Amazon.com, WalMart.com, Staples.com, OfficeDepot.com and in-store at Circuit City, Staples, Office Depot, J&R Electronics, Fry’s Electronics and select retailers and bookstores across the United States. A complete list of resellers is available at www.hp.com/calculators/resellers.
