Product Description:
Why burden yourself with more devices than you need? Business, retail, and real-estate professionals can simplify their lives by installing Financial Consultant on their PDAs, leaving their old-fashioned financial calculators behind. Thanks to an interface that imitates industry-standard devices like the HP12c, users familiar with the conventions of financial calculators will be able to get started immediately. Further speeding you along are the wide range of predefined business calculations, conveniently placed in form-based solvers that eliminate the need to memorize complex keystroke combinations. For those who need a little more guidance, Financial Consultant's superb manual contains step-by-step instructions and examples for common equations and real-world problems. Take note, however, that in spite of these ease-of-use features, the software is geared toward professionals, executives, and MBA students, rather than toward novice users. Financial Consultant also offers more than 90 functions through popup menus, ranging from interest-rate conversions and amortizations to standard deviations and internal rate of return calculations. Algebraic and RPN input options are both available, as are Float, SCI, FIX, and ENG display options. Although Financial Consultant's focus is clearly financial and business-related math, it does support core scientific functions as well. Financial Consultant can't completely replace the HP12c--it won't, for example, do Bond calculations--but the chances are that if you do the math, Financial Consultant will add up to a smart investment. --Jack Gardiner

 For the hardcore business user, 2000-12-06
A decent attempt at a business-oriented PDA application. More like putting a HP financial/business calculator's functionality into a PalmOS handheld. It has several built-in functions, handy for anyone involved in the savings and loans, mortgages, or leasing fields. If you're involved in any of these fields and have a PalmOS-based handheld, then I would recommend it; otherwise there's really no need for this particular product.
