VOTE: Options for ARM calc.

(1/5) > >>

jnesselr:
Please vote yes or no for each pair of options.  Please do not vote yes and no for the same option.  Discuss and suggest options bellow.  This is for me to get a better idea for what people want on this calc.  Please ignore the fact that it might not be acceptable on the ACT/SAT.  (For example, the touchscreen)  This is kinda what your dream calc would have.

Happy voting.

No option for a rechargeable(lithium?) battery pack?

jnesselr:
That is the last two options.  Basically, there would be an option that if you had the rechargeable batteries, it would be chargeable via usb. This would be changed via the menu.  If you had regular batteries, then the calc wouldn't charge them.

[EDIT] Also, please vote on all options. Someone didn't vote about the touchscreen and the battery issue.  This is to make sure no one is cheating the system and voting for both yes and no.  The combination of Yes results+No results should add up to the number of voters.

Well, I voted for Micro SD card support. It would be a nice and compact way to store data and transfer it to the computer or another calculator. Some other calcs got SD card support, too. As for USB, it would be another good way to store stuff, if someone plugged in a USB jumpdrive, for example. However, I voted for the regular-sized USB port, so we don't need to buy mini to regular USB adapters like we have to buy to use USB8x on the 84+.

I voted no backlight, because I think it would eat way too much power. My bro had the GBA and the GBA SP and it's insane how much power the SP took just because it had a backlight. That said, if a backlight that is not very powerful was added and still looked clear enough in semi-dark areas, it could be fine, maybe, but we need to make sure people won't destroy their eyes either. So for now I voted no.

3.5mm link port because it's easier to fit headphones. That said, it's not the priority, but it's good to have in case. I assume some other kind of cables could be plugged in, right? Most stuff is 3.5 mm, anyway.

No touchscreen, so it can be allowed in most tests. Also I personally dislike using a touchscreen because I hate having to use the pen but at the same time, if using my fingers it eventually gets dirty.

AA batteries. Much cheaper than AAAs and I believe more powerful.

A recharging option would be welcome, assuming it won't make the calc too big.

Yes, I want a 2.5 and a 3.5 link port, one for linking, another for musics
