Larry
Get a life.

Larry
Let me explain, the math toy has all kinds of math and graphing
applications. I have paid hundreds of dollars for the exact same
software from TI and HP over the last few years. Now this is on the
math toy and I can take my pick. Actually I keep only a couple on the
iPhone now as some are so complicated I can not remember how they
worked without a manual. My current favorite is HiCalc which solves
the problem in spades with a display of the formula just as in
your video. You can go back and change parameters for similar runs
with different variables just as you got all giggling over on the
Nokia.
Larry the Apple math toy is far more accurate then the Nokia and
switches to scientific notation if needed.

Now as far as I know you are the only one who would claim that the
Google iPhone is a crap web app.
Did you even know it could solve math problems like that simply by
using your voice? Wouldn't that be great while driving? By the way an
old businessman was eating lunch with me and he was furious about the
proposed stimulus package.He asked me if I knew the current population
of the USA.

"Sure let me Google that for you on my iPhone."

Take out iPhone and say to Google "the current population of the USA",
kerchunk, turn it around and show him the current population of the
USA and the current population of the whole world as a bonus reference
is "right cher" on the screen too!

Then I used the built in Apple math toy to demonstrate his figures
were wrong about how much each citizen would figure in that bailout.

You should have seen the impression on his face as he asked for the
iPhone so he could see 'that'.

I am sorry Larry, you outdated Nokia fan boi but I think I
inadvertently sold another couple of iPhones for Apple at that
meal ;>)

I will try not to do that again Larry, it just happens when I am not
even thinking about it!

You see I can not get my mind around things like "Google is web app
crap." I just use Google without thinking for everything since it is
in my pocket and I don't have to do anything but speak to it.
