Title: I have saw the TI-84+ Pocket Color
Post by: aietraullu on November 21, 2012, 05:47:13 pm
Hello omnimaga,

I am new to this forum and dont speak english so good, so excuse me.
I think this will interest you because it is about the 84 color and it is on the pocket version now I think.

I took a photo of the cattalog for you :

I had to put some blue zones because of the details undisclosed. sorry

Bye,
Raül-Lu Aiët.

Sweet I didn't know that they were making the pocket SE in color too!

/me hopes this one will be sold in the US..
Tho they better have the protective case thing for it.

Also the link in the picture seems to be dead, guess they haven't made it yet :P

Wow, that is pretty interesting. What I think is that in USA, we will get the TI-84 Plus C SE, while in France, you'll get the TI-84 Pocket C SE, since the other Pocket model is only available in France.

Welcome to the forums by the way!

Oh no don't say that.  I really want to get a pocket calculator here in the US.  Maybe they'll give the US the pocket version since we don't have a pocket version yet and France has the Pocket, Asia has the Pocket SE and maybe we will get the Pocket C SE.  That would be great!  :D

Maybe, although it would be weird if they sold both models in USA simultaneously ??? (they couldn't charge more for the smaller one, unless it had better specs, else I doubt it would sell that well).

Gonna post a news about this, with an edited pic (and link to this thread)

c/P of my post in the other topic :

You realize the poster's name is "Aietraullu", meaning "I troll you" ? ;)
Also, photoshopping an image + taking a photo of it is a quite nice way to hide some imperfections :P

lulz Cemetech newsed about it :D

Am I the only one who noticed the "fail" (?) in the letter order in the 84+ C Pocket SE catalog url ? :P (84pluspcse!= 84pluscpse)
Title: Re: I have saw the TI-84+ Pocket Color
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on November 22, 2012, 03:07:39 am
Oh wow I see now.

By the way, is TI keeping you informed of every single thing they are planning to release in the future, even China-only stuff, for example? If they do and never did any exception/forgetting before, then I guess that might possibly be fake. I admit that one thing that surprised me was how the design was so similar to the Pocket SE, but it seemed darker, and given that it was leaked so early after the other calc by a new member, I had the reflex to put a question mark after my news item title in case (yes, I still remember what TI did in 2011 with the TI-84+SE discontinuing stunt).

If that is really fake then that's a nice early April Fools joke that we felt for (I wonder who would hide behind the screen name above and if it's a known community member or just a random Slashdot user). If it was posted earlier and TI-Planet wouldn't have newsed about it for hours, then I would probably be even more skeptical, though.

Well, no, but I wish :P
But anyway I have not seen any reference to this model.

Post by: DJ Omnimaga on November 22, 2012, 03:15:22 am
About the letter order fail, one thing to keep in mind is that TI did some rather bad mistakes in the past. Remember the misordered calculator comparison chart page, for example. :P
Title: Re: I have saw the TI-84+ Pocket Color
Post by: aeTIos on November 22, 2012, 04:15:07 am
Well I'm getting more and more convinced this is a fake. Have you seen the "Key Features" thing under it? They're normal 84+ apps.
Title: Re: I have saw the TI-84+ Pocket Color
Post by: Adriweb on November 22, 2012, 04:19:07 am
Well, it's because I guess it's common to all the 84 models.
but yeah.
Title: Re: I have saw the TI-84+ Pocket Color
Post by: aeTIos on November 22, 2012, 05:38:44 am
Still think it's fake until the opposite is proven.

Wait... /me runs.

Well all this was certainley not intended to fall in any news on any websites :P Well, at least we confirm how a simple photoshop/rumor can quickly spread ! :o


You can now +1 me for my awesome photoshop skillz used for useless things in boredom :D

Post by: Juju on November 22, 2012, 10:52:05 am
Yup, IP check.

And that would indeed be nice if they would do that, actually this idea would be pretty plausible when the normal 84+C will begin to be widely used. I like the pocket version and I bet TI like pocket stuff too.

Yep.

However, i'd expect that catalog page(s) to change and get updated with the new models (pocket, color, etc.) So my version might not be so far lol

the original image looks quite real, if it was a rumor of Apple, was already spread across hundreds of sites.

Nice trolling Adriweb :P, you really got us bad here lol. I mean, I was not 100% sure early on and I posted my news as some sort of question, but I would not have been surprised if TI released that at one point. I wonder if they will, though, in a not so distant future? Also in your new pic, it seems to look a bit nicer. :P

Well, they're already doing that. The following calcs are not sold in North America:

TI-76.Fr (France)
TI-82 STATS (Germany)
TI-82 Stats.Fr (France, Belgium)
TI-83 Plus.Fr (France)
TI-84 Pocket.Fr (France)
TI-84 Pocket SE (Asia)
TI-Nspire CM (China)

On the other hand, the TI-73 is only sold in United States.

I guess it changed from Texas Instruments as a place to nothing more than a name.

Yeah, and as well as what's said above none of the 84 pockets (real or otherwise) have been sold in the US yet :(  I wouldn't mind having one of the b/w ones, tho they don't have the extra ram..

Lol now to wonder how long before they start shaving stuff off of the 84Cs for no good reason :P

I think since the past few years they have just been trying to expand harder in Europe, especially places where competition from Casio was pretty fierce.

TI-82 Stats.Fr (France, Belgium)
TI-83 Plus.Fr (France)
TI-84 Pocket.Fr (France)
TI-84 Pocket SE (Asia)
TI-Nspire CM (China)
You forgot the "Plus" for the TI-84 Plus Pocket SE ;)
And I don't know why but the TI-84 Pocket.fr does not have a "Plus" ???
Title: Re: I have saw the TI-84+ Pocket Color

For information, TI-82 Stats has been available in France before being replaced with the TI-82 Stats.fr.

Except that when I left on thursday morning you had neither posted the fake image, nor told me you intended to troll Omnimaga.

And when I came back on thursday evening, it had allready been found out that it was a fake and that you were the culprit.


Now you have to release/perform something huge so that people will forgive you :P

Some people need to grow the hell up if they can't laugh (or at least ignore) at a 1-day joke that I quickly "explained" afterwards.

Sure, why not 1 or 2 "-1", but that many ?


Yeah, right, it sure feels very nice to be there.

By the way, from the MySQL database, can admins bulk-deleted negative/postive votes in one thread given by one person in particular or is that impossible?

Also were there multiple negative votes on one post or were they on many posts? Not sure if 0-1 post members can mass downrate. On the other hand, in the past, it was not rare to see group of friends or supporters of each others come here just to visit controversial topics and downrate posts they disagree with together and rating each others up.

I agree though that disagreeing with someone or disliking his joke is fine if stated respectfuly and politely, but going on an hating rampage against that person by rating all his posts down or even permanently putting him on his shitlist for just one prank among many good community contributions is uncalled for.

EDIT: The first post received many dislikes, but it was the only one to do so, so it was most likely one person doing the mass downvoting (not sure if related to the other downvoting incident yesterday?). The first post downvoting is most likely just random people finding the joke immature or something.

( http://www.omnimaga.org/index.php?action=ezportal;sa=page;p=25 for people who want to know which posts of theirs ever got downrated, but they are not necessarily in the right order)
