The Sharp EL-5500III

Display: LCD, 24 digit display (numbers as 8+2 in sci. not., 10 digit precision)

Power: 3 CR2032 watch batteries

Adv. Functions: Trig, hyperbolics, logs, probability, statistics, matricies

Memories: 1 in calculator mode

Programming: Programs in BASIC, 7.5Kb of available user memory (double that of the EL-5500II)

Comments: This was the last of the 5500 series with twice the memory (RAM) of the 5500II and an enchanced ROM which adds functions such as the matrix manipulation routines. A very capable machine, although the calculator functions (and memory) are completely seperate from the computer.
