Default anything comparable to easycalc?

I am a physics major in college and still haven't been able to find a comparable calculator to easycalc on the PPC platform.


Does anyone know of any calculators that do symbolic manipulation along with easy to use graphing (color, draggable, and the like)?

This is my main frustration with my PPC... I still have to lug the palm around for a calculator

I have tried formulae 1, emulators (hp), power one, etc...

There are also HP48G emulator, and TI-89 port is on the progress. (search the net)
plus there are also the usual mickey mouse calculator like you've just mention, some are quite big and elaborate.

I've used the saltire Xpander software (slow, and does derivations wrong), I've also used the hp stuff (incredibly slow)

easycalc is FAR from mickey mouse! many use it to replace their ti92's, and its freeware! Sorry, I've got to defend my old friend. =)

A port of Maple of Mathematica would be nice.
