Texas Instruments has officially announced the arrival of OS 3.2 for this Spring, although we do not recommend upgrading right away when it comes out.

Of course, this OS comes with plenty of new features for math purposes. This year, as seen in the TI-Planet news post about the new OS, a lot of graphing features are being added, such as parametric 3D graphing and the ability to switch the 3D view. As mentionned on IRC by some people a few times before, Lua is supposed to be improved a lot as well, most likely something that goes with the eventual release of the Lua SDK that is supposed to be this Summer unless things changed. According to TI-Planet, the latter should be built-in the TI-Nspire Student Software, meaning that you may only have to purchase it if you bought your calculator on Ebay without the linking software or if you got an older model.

While this OS may improve a lot of math and Lua programming-related things, like before, we do not recommend upgrading to the OS immediately after its release. It may block Ndless 3.2 permanently, or at the very least, the next 6 or 8 months, and install an anti-downgrade protection on your machine! Wait until the TI community have tested this OS before upgrading, in case you still want to use Ndless again after the OS release.

The two PDFs on this page may contain a few more information about this upcoming release.

Well, the new features looks pretty great, but always remember to pass your upgrade file through TNOC before installing it.

Note that this trick which is very usefull on classic Nspire won't help with downgrading CX Nspire at all.

Without Ndless, to my knowledge it's impossible to bypass the OS downgrade protection.

I think they made it on purpose so you think about giving up Ndless. But I don't upgrade unless they include a GBC emulator in their OS.

They had most of these new stuff before they even heard of Ndless 3.1 Wink

Well, it's not yet out you know Tongue

From what I remember Lua will considerably be improved, but for the community to adopt it it would have to achieve much better speed than it currently does, and much better getkey speed. Also a lot of people will still want gbc4nspire, nDoom, etc, which will never be possible in Lua, so those people better wait before upgrading and hope their teacher won't force them to upgrade.

I'm allowed to be tempted by a potential upgrade even though it's not out.

Totally getting the new OS, the 3d parametric graphing outweighs the nDoom, but not much.
