PCalc 3.2 updates scientific calculator

TLA Systems today released PCalc 3.2, an update to its calculator application. PCalc is a fully featured scientific calculator for Mac OS X with support for hexadecimal, octal and binary calculations, as well as an RPN mode, parentheses, programmable functions, and an extensive set of unit conversions. This release adds full speech support to the application, allowing it to read your actions and results back to you, as well as speak the current number being displayed. It also creates two new extra large calculator styles with big buttons and displays and improves the support for VoiceOver and other accessibility software. Version 3.2 also improves support for international users, especially those who use a comma as decimal separator rather than a dot and adds support for an unlimited number of constants: it ships with around 30 new scientific constants built-in and more can be added by via its plug-in system. It is available for $20 (requires Mac OS X 10.4) or for $24 in a bundle with DragThing.
