Cool looking graphing calculator

<< < (2/6) > >>

It seems pretty cool, but there are just a few things I'd like to mention:

- By the screenshot of it, it's home screen, or whatever it is called, doesn't look very professional or as good as the TI-89 Titanium's / Voyage 200's

- It doesn't have the operation keys (+, -, *, /) in the traditional layout

Well (if we are talking about looks, not technical capabilities), in my opinion it looks sleek, dynamic and high tech. The TI-89 Titanium looks bulky and fat compared to the CASIO fx-9860G Slim.

What do you mean by that? The fx-9860G Slim does have those keys on it's keyboard. Here's a link to a bigger photo of the fx-9860G Slim: http://www.casio.com/resource/images/press/fx-9860gslim_press.jpg

Well yes, my programming projects right now are towards the hardware. My projects right now include WAVE-fx (High quality WAVE and maybe MP3 music player for the fx-9860), EPSILON (hardware library for the fx-9860 series) and a USB driver for the fx-9860 series.

There are a couple of games right now for the fx-9860 made using the fx-9860 SDK: http://www.casiocalc.org/?to=fsdisplay.php&cat2disp=FS.FX-9860G.casm#totitle

No, I mean the actual operating system's home screen or whatever, not the physical calculator's design.

Also, I know that it has those keys, but they aren't in the traditional layout.  Take a look at this calculator, for example:

What I was saying is that I preferred a calculator layout like the TIs more than notepads/92/v200 layouts.

But isn't CASIO's keyboard layout more efficient? In your traditional layouts, you have to move your hand up and down in a column. Going between multiplication and addition takes more distance than on a CASIO in which the +, *, /, - are grouped into a square allowing greater efficiency of entering equations.

If you don't like portable stuff, here's what the original fx-9860 SD (has a card slot):
