Hi all, I just want to chip in as Swissmicros is mentioned. Several years my then trustworthy HP-15c was bent out of shape and order in my backpack and was forced top rely on a HP-11c since then. Last year I got one of Swissmicros HP-15c-clones. Aaaah, finally the buttons are where my fingers remembered them. The only drawback is that the keys are a bit hard to press compared to the original, apart from that I am very happy with it.
PS With its added memory I now have squeezed a sun-position program into it with about arc-minute accuracy in Hc and Azi.
