Pros and cons of Construction Master 5 Calc app for iPhone and iPad

Construction Master 5 Calc app good for

This is exactly the Construction Master 5 for iPhone. If you like the Master 5 youll like this.
Unlike the Jobber6 (which is better for more detailed info needed)
Ive worked in the construction industry for over 20 years. Ive used a Calculated Industries calculator of one kind or another for most of that time and still do. This is "THE" construction calculator. Compared to what these used to cost in the store the current discounted price is a steal. You will not be disappointed.
So far, so good. I really have liked my stand-alone Construction Master 5 for quite some time. What a great idea to make this for the iPhone / iPod touch! In-putting dimensions is much more logical than some of the foot-inch calculators out there. Buy this App - you wont be dissapointed.
I have been using Calculated Industries products for many years and find this app to be great addition. I can see myself with few apps as they bring more industry specific calculators on board.
Finally, its on my iPad... On the next update, it needs rotate in Landscape view because not everybody uses their iPad in Portrait, I bought a case that is designed to hold my iPad in Landscape. I dont feel like taking the case off everyday at work to use this app, that will become a total drag. There should be another version strictly for the iPad to take advantage of the bigger screen, because pressing 2x takes away the sharpness and clearity, appears out of focus. If you could please correct this soon, dont make us purchase this twice ! you guys are charging too much for this app, this app should have been priced around $7.99 because the "off" and "On/C" keys are missing ! If those two keys were there, then its worth at least $9.99, its over priced, really !!! Thanks...
