I use Symfonie for this reason.

Quick reply....
Qalculette, a QML "scientific" calculator
procalc is for programmer's calculator
galculator port
Miscellaneous:
Limit - calculating mathematical limits for Maemo 4 & 5
Integral - calculating mathematical integrals for Maemo 4 & 5
Derivative - calculating mathematical derivatives for Maemo 4 & 5
Nokia Handwriting Calculator (a deb for Maemo 4 available; apparently, not ported to Maemo 5)
TiEmu 2 (Screen rotation or real keyboard required)
Best wishes.

Re: Bought a N900 again
 
Thanks, Wikiwide. I tried and did not like Qalculette (it was an example of one of those with a horrendous UI :)) Limit, Integral and Derivative are not quite what I am after. I will give the rest a try.

At the moment, I am using MathJinni. It is the closest to what I am after with the best UI.

EDIT: Tried Galculator. It is exactly what I was looking for, thanks a lot for the head-up. What a shame it is not in the Fremantle repository so I could not find it by normal search. I eventually found it in the Diablo repository here. That site is a gold mine BTW.

@lancewex,

Thanks, Symfonie is just what I wanted. Simple, no indexing, no tracker. Brilliant.

Now that I no longer need tracker for indexing my music collection, can I uninstall it or will it break something?

A little late but better than never.
You shouldn't format the internal storage to NTFS, at least not any filesystem which contains executable programs.
NTFS support is only really useful if you're gonna use NTFS-formatted microSD cards and/or USB disks. In that case just install fuse and ntfs-3g and you're ready to go.

I use SomePlayer because it includes a graphic equalizer. It also does not index anything.

Also, if you are new to the N900 make sure you look up info on how to boost the FM Transmitter.
