I'm sure there Is but it is most likely just as slow. There is a reason no third party os's have had parser yet, its because they are very difficult to make and they take a lot of work and most likely ti's parser would still win.

@Omnimaga: HP's have built in HP BASIC, but if I had to guess I'd say it's their old BASIC being emulated on the ARM processor. One of the two types of ASM it supports(saturn ASM) is emulated and I assume that the BASIC that runs on there is emulated as well. Don't quote me on it though. From what I've read though everything runs faster on the HP 50G than it's early predecessor, (the 48G) so despite the emulation (again I'm not entirely sure about this) it should run fairly fast. In regards to how their BASIC language is sturctured or how advanced it is I'm not sure. I'm still looking into it. =) I will update the first post as I find more info.

DJ Omnimaga:
Too bad they don't sell this calc here :(

JonimusPrime:
You mentioned ti supported Lisp :):):):) Just for info lisp was one of the first interpreted programing languages. Most interpreted lauanges today own most of their structure and power to lisp.
Oh and how much do these bad boys run his is really starting to sound interesting.

--- Quote ---*edit* Looked into casios, they don't hold any intrest for me. For the 9860 series the screen rez is only slightly larger than that of the ti-86, and the processor is sligtly under 15 MHZ. The Class pad doesnt intrest me at all, as the res is much taller than it is wide, and I just don't care for the design. I can't even find specs for the processor speed on the class pad.

If I remember correctly, kucalc had a very helpful post on the old Omnimaga forums that said that the Fx-9860 could be over clocked to over 70MHz or something like that.  In addition, I think the Classpad and the FX-9860 series can be programmed in C.

Also, check out these calculator benchmarks (it's no surprise that they're on an HP website).
