Not many people have more than one calculator... :)

I've read that long ago and actually incorporated some of the general ideas like cascading checks.
No, I didn't mean that. And if you had probably read this topic you'd have seen me write that you must have read that, so that is nothing new. Keep searching ;)

Edit: Probably should have been properly.

I know this topic is sort of old, but kllnrohj and I have been helping Kerm with this, and its going pretty good......(btw this is my first post on MaxCoderz, although Ive visited here before)

Of course not. Java can't interface with the hardware, it requires your users to install the JVM, and it's awfully slow. A scriptkiddie could have told you that.
I take it you've never heard of JNI or jUSB? ah well never mind now that we are doing it with wxWidgets/C++ and not Java/AWT/Swing.

Nope, I didn't. But using JNI will restrict you to an operating system, and jUSB only has Linux support. So you made the wise decision ;)

Yup, they've been doing some good work. I think C++ was definitely the way to go.
