Re: Product code.

If your about screen does not say "Hardware version 2.00" then you have a
"HW1" calculator.  That means that you are limited to 384k of the Flash ROM
for user data archive.  The remaining 318k can only be used for Flash ROM
apps.  It is my understanding that the memory screen will still show you
have 702k for Flash ROM but you can't really use all of it for user data
archive unless your calc is "HW2".
