"Operate the TI-Nspire handheld, with TI-84 Plus Keypad snapped in, side-by-side and keystroke-for-keystroke with existing TI graphing calculators. (The TI-Nspire CAS handheld does not include the TI-84 Plus Keypad.)" -- wtf?
"*The TI-84 Plus Keypad is not included or compatible with the TI-Nspire CAS handheld." -- haha!
"The TI-Nspire CAS handheld does not include the snap-in TI-84 Plus Keypad, which is compatible exclusively with the TI-Nspire handheld."(http://www.ti-nspire.com/tools/nspire/features/nspire_cas.html) -- HIPOCRITS!(sp?)
"TI Connect™ software. You can still transfer data back-and-forth between handheld and computer. Capture graphing calculator screen images and download StudyCards, operating system updates, software applications (Apps) and more. Simply link to the computer using the TI-84 Plus Keypad's I/O port." -- wait, so they basically put an 84 in this 'keypad' and they're using the Nspires display? Im scared.
This just looks stupid. I mean, WTF?! it's not compatable. It's compatable. :wacko:
Im scared.

The CAS software takes up the available memory that the 84+ emulation gives. It says that plain as day in there. They are releasing 2 calculators.
So why did you make this post?? And why is it in the calculator discussion, if you are just going to "rant" about it??

This may mean they could rewrite the OS to support basic eventually, but as of now. No programming what so ever.
This kind of sucks. I'm not going to buy it now. <_<

(the teachers asked me to come in during my normal math class a few times and kind of lecture and step by step help the students build the math programs.)

Are there any online petitions to give the Nspire programmability in the next OS yet?

Yes, I agree completely with you. I think TI is being so selfish and stupid and conceited and foolish and... dang, I'm out of adjectives. Hehe; this is funny, it's my first post and I'm already complaining. :P

And in response to your forum signature it should be fixed soon. It,s because one of the member was abusing the bbcode and it went out of our control so the only way was to completly disable it :(
but now he doesnt cause as much trouble and was warned he would be banned if he did

But my TI manual date back in early 2001 (and it seems to be 1999 edition) so it has been a long while since they said this

My manual says the same thing about getkey, and it is copyright 2004. :P

| ah ok. I know the SE comes with a very small manual though and my 89t came with a 300 page manual with explained details, altough it sucks compared to the original 60-800 page TI-89 manual |
You have an 89? Nice! :thumbup:
I remember you were planning on getting one.QuoteBegin

| I actually learned TI-BASIC only from my big TI-83+ manual, nothing else, not even tutorials |
Yeah, me too.
It's annoying how the old manuals like 83+ are not numbered as in 1-400. Grouping by sections is OK, but I would also prefer page numbers.
And I think the new N-spire are supposed to be anti-gaming. I guess teachers are tired of kids playing games in class, so TI hopes that a lack of programming will stop game developers. But that won't stop us right :P

no I'm pretty sure the 83+(SE) had some nice thick manuals. It was the 84+ and 89ti that had really skinny manuals.

| Will I be able to write programs on the TI-Nspire products? If so, what is the programming language? Will a software developer's kit be available? Currently, there are some programming capabilities (specifically function and program definition) on TI-Nspire and TI-Nspire CAS. Increased programming functionally will be available in an operating system release expected to be available for download in early 2008. The programming language is TI-Basic. Be sure to update your handheld's operating systems regularly to receive these and other enhancements to functionality. |
I thought you'd find this interesting, I found it on the Ti-Nspire website. I was just curious to see if they had announced anything about it's programming capabilities.
This looks pretty promising. :)
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on October 05, 2007, 02:00:00 am
hopefully the langage will be similar and offer backward compatibility with other TI-Basic language. As for now I'm not getting an N-Spire but if it gets programming capabilities I may get one, altough I'll have to buy it from TI store since it's not sold where I live :(

huh, lucky i had an 86 back in the days before 84+ series.
it had a pretty nice manual, it's just that basic optimizations really weren't intuitive back when I was starting out on my own before I knew about forums ^^ *Liazon
