You want real buttons, you can get a real HP 12c on ebay for $10.

You can't. It can run third-party program code, and so violates the AppStore ToS.

So far nobody's invented a device that's capable of shape-shifting, so replicating the interface via touch is as good as you can get without actually buying the calculator.

#7The noise it makes when you push the keys is repellent but it is very close otherwise to the HPs I remember. I really want a 41CX, tho.

#8Tapping into the nostalgic geek market? As much as I like the HP 15C, I'm not spending $30 for an iPhone version of it. They need to re-evaluate their price.

#9That's really funny. The HP-12C is still extremely popular at work. I could never bring myself to get used to it -- I still use my TI-89 from college -- and I get a lot of flak from the rest of the office.
