Besides not being able to spell, I can't multiply either ... since I got back into stock trading again I NEED a calculator with me at all times since my cell doesn't have one ... do any of you guys know of a very thin credit card calc that would survive being carried in the wallet? Thanks!!
 
just a lil' something.....the credit card sized calculators that I have owned have all broken within a month or two of getting them. If you carry your wallet "brick butt" style....If you push the keys too hard, or too much.....If it's a solar-cell calculator.....and so on....all of these things to consider. Just my 0.02

YMMV

I have to concur with that. I used to carry one when I was in high school, but the bloody LCD kept cracking because of pocket carry. It works, but you have to be gentle with it.
 
Don't carry it in your back pocket, guys. You can't expect it to survive getting sat on....
 
Last weekend, I bought a big package of Ray O Vac AA batteries at Home Depot that came with a cc calculator.

I used to have the calc watch with phone number directory and get this .... radio all in one!!!!!! $hit they don't even have that now!!!!
 
Check out radio shack. I have three of them from the early 90's that are tucked into various places for handy use. (car sun visor, planner, and briefcase) All three of them work perfectly and always have. Labeled as Radio Shack Micro Thin Time Calculation. Comes with a handy litte case and is solar powered. Good luck.

My dad had a watch with a radio. Not sure what brand it was but it sure was cool. He still has his stainless and composite Casio wrist calculators from back in the 80s. There's no need for wrist radios now because of mp3 players although it sure would be handy for those times the big game is on and a radio is "prohibited" :D .
