The three vintage calculators are replicas of the HP 12c, HP platinum and HP 15c. The programs work almost identically to the original calculators and you even get a sense of using the device in 3D with the aid of the programs technology and the infinite capabilities of the iPhone.

It’s time to crunch some numbers in style.
