Is it possible to use the siunitx package to typeset numbers with the "E" notation so that the output might look like

1E3

instead of

1 x 10^3

Yes, it's possible, see p. 29 in the manual:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{siunitx}
\sisetup{output-exponent-marker=\ensuremath{\mathrm{E}}}

\begin{document}
\num{1e3}

\SI{2.3e5}{m}
\end{document}

enter image description here

    Thank you! I looked in the manual and on this site and couldn't find it. I realize now I was in the SIunits manual, not the siunitx manual. – mankoff Apr 23 '13 at 23:50
