The HP12c Platinum 25th Anniversary Edition (HP12cPAE) is the 2006 special commemorative limited edition model and the second official upgrade of the original HP12C, the overall construction is firm and solid and the improved keypad buttons has a very nice tactile feel indeed. For better viewing, users can now adjust the contrast of the clear LCD display screen.

With the HP12cPAE, advanced users have a more powerful tool which would enable them to store more keystroke programs into their HP12cPAE, to perform routine complex and customized financial calculations by executing the programs stored in its memory. This upgrade has four times more data storage memory which is sufficient for input of up to 80 cash flows or 400 programming steps.

Realistically, it is difficult to keep improving a near perfect product such as the iconic HP12C. Judging by the high industry standard it has set, the HP12C would probably celebrate its 50th anniversary in 2031. Cheers!
