This is quite an interesting twist on the typically boring "stock" calculators found on mobile devices. I am surprised no one has come up with this idea before now (at least this is the first time I have seen an idea like this). And, it seems reasonably priced for a WinMo app.

SFR Calculator can be purchased for half the price at
Windows Marketplace.
Hurry up !

RapidCalc is the closest application that I have used. Still have a copy running on my Axim.

RapidCalc simply opens as a soft keyboard replacement, and gives the option of either having your calculation show up in a "Total" window, or of also having each step entered into the document, line by line:
58
+ 36
= 94
x 3
= 282

Works with (at least) Notes & PhatNotes, & makes it handy to locate an error - but it lacks the Edit & Correct feature that SFR promises, and which would seem to set the SFR Calculator apart.

I have been using this for several years (the previous version was called calcPad). It's one of the most useful applications I have. It's nothing you can't do in a couple of minutes with a spreadsheet, but having it right there without having to program in any formulas is really handy. Very highly recommended.

(I used RapidCalc for quite a while before calcPad. The main difference is that the calculations in calcPad stay "live" -- changing a number changes all the following results flowing from that number, just like in a spreadsheet.)
