A calc actually looking modern enough for >2010? What is this.To be fair, the Nspire CX is pretty modern.
Yes, the 68K CAS is better than the TI-Nspire CX CAS and Hp50G and CP330/400Ok, but can you prove it with a video or something, with stuff that the rest of the calcs can't do or something? :P
the 68K CAS is better than the TI-Nspire CX CASThe CAS of the Nspire series is derived from the CAS of the TI-68k series, and (until OS 2.1) has fewer bugs and several additional features. OS 3.x (only OS versions on the CX, at the time of this writing) added some more features, but most of all, many bugs that the TI-68k series, and earlier Nspire OS versions, never had.
Soon rather than later, we'll get all these graphics capabilities for free (!) on cheap android-like systems (<$50). Then the golden egg math business will go down the sewage drain. Here is just the beginning: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.algeo.algeo&hl=en . ;)
Derivatives and Integrals (when done By Parts) can be done steps by steps thanks to some TI-Basic and Lua (more recently) programs.
Restrict commands to restrict the creativity of future programmer, is like a book maimed >:(Actually it would be nice if somebody actually ported TI-89 BASIC to Ndless, or wrote some sort of parser that added missing commands to TI-89 BASIC, for people who don't like Lua or find it too hard. Another cool thing would be if some 83+ commands were added too (such as the 83+ classic command prompt style input)
A small step complement TI-89/V200 BASIC
ClrDraw : erase all the drawings
circle(x,y,r,color) : draw a circle
Line(x0,y0,x1,y1,color) : draw a segment
LineHorz(y,color) : draw a horizontal line
PtOn(x,y,color) : switch on a pixel
drawf(fct,color) : draw the graph of a function ( color is the color number)

Who of you can code a TIBasicFull.tns file that complements unincorporated commands of the TI-89/V200
thanks
Any ideas on the processor? Are we looking at another SH4? That would be cool.
If any CP300 has a SH3 processor and some add-ins were made without the official SDK, then those add-ins will most likely stop working on newer Classpad 3xx calcs, like what happened with some FX-9860G add-ins.
Exactly. CP300 addins do not work on the CP300+.I use add-ins created for cp300 in my cp330 and they work.
In this day and age there is just no good reason to intro a new device that requires a stylus.
Those high-end devices like ClassPad 400 and Nspire CX may be the last of their kind.And it's not necessarily a bad thing. TI, Casio, HP and the others have milked dozens of millions of customers over the years, with severely overpriced devices whose hardware and software characteristics are significantly sub-par, and whose feature gap with leading edge devices keeps widening.
Hey wait! What is with the stylus I see in some pictures? If one has to use a stylus, that will be very disappointing and I won't buy one. Using a stylus is ancient obsolete technology and Casio has made a big mistake. I don't understand what is with the calculator makers? They come out with new devices with obsolete technology all the time. Like the lack of a touch screen on the TI stuff. Do they think we are stupid and won't notice? EVEN MY MICROWAVE OVEN HAS A TRUE TOUCH SCREEN, no stylus needed. I just don't get it. In this day and age there is just no good reason to intro a new device that requires a stylus. Bah humbug.I'M pretty sure you don't have to use the stylus. The Nintendo DS comes with one and I can still play certain games without one. ;) Styluses are more for people with huge fingers or people who hate seeing their screen become dirty from their fingers over time.

If schools end up allowing smartphones and/or tablets, customers will no longer have to buy the largely redundant devices that calculators have become due to technological evolution, and due to ever dumbed down testing.

I do see your point, DJ. In my old high school, which recently got renovated, they have a few rooms that they've designed such that you get zero cell phone reception. Ironically enough, though, one of them has Wifi inside. :PAnd as they block the bluetooth signal or wifi ad-hoc from inside room? Even with these rooms is possible use bluetooth or a ad-hoc network to communicate with other people in the room.
Would lower ram mean worse processing speed compared to the cx cas?For some algorithms, definitely.
That is pretty awesome, i like the tap to rotate!They will probably ignore it. IIRC touch screens are not viable on standard testing (at least in the US) for some reason. Also, TI did prototype a calculator like this at one point but ended up scrapping the idea.
I wonder what tis response will be...

I assume this means it will be much easier to port PRIZM games to it?I do not know well.
