(This :P)

On a more serious note where is the Voyage 200?? O.O
What ever happened to the 200? Of all the older calcs, the 89 ti and the 200 are my favorite, though I have neither.

I'm unsure. It was just not listed there, but is still listed elsewhere on TI website. It's their most powerful 68K calc, but maybe it doesn't sell as much (the huge size doesn't help) and they aren't bothering to market it anymore.

They're probably only listing calcs that are allowed in testing.

Yeah the 92 and the V200 has a QWERTY keyboard, so it's not allowed in SAT and such.

Remember the day the walrus started to fly...

I finally cleared my sig after 4 years you're happy now?

Where Do you get started on dev for calculators? I have exp. with iPhone dev, C++ and Actionscript, but how about this? What lang. do you use? How do you build your interfaces?

That depends on what calculator you have. If you have an Nspire <3.0, you use C, ASM, or BASIC. For Nspire's >3.0, people generally use Lua or BASIC. If you have an 84+ calculator, you can use C, ASM, BASIC, BBC BASIC, or Axe. For the 68k calcs, there's basically the same selection, except that more people use C. If you happen to own a prizm (not a TI calc...), you can write C, ASM or BASIC, though there is a project in the works to bring Java, Lua, and Brainf*ck to that calculator.

As for interfaces, you generally don't use a whole lot of OO with calculator dev :P

They wrote User Available Memory instead of Memory and listed the 83+ as compatible with the 84+? Man, I'm almost starting to like TI... Now they just need to stop claiming that the Nspires have apps. :P

It would be really awsome if we had apps for the nspire:P
