I've noticed too.

They do, but not the Prizm. They got the FX-9860G, the 7400G+ and another weird looking calc. I guess maybe there isn't demand for high-end calcs there.

www.arizone.de - one of the remaining larger calculator and school material sellers - is out of Prizms, too. ;D

You know... could this be why the german TI community is almost non-existent nowadays? Back in 2005, Omnimaga userbase was like 20-25% German (one 68K user and the rest were 83+ users) and there was a very active German TI forum. After 2007 or so, those users moved on and we didn't get a single German user until like one year ago and I hardly ever notice any on other forums. Could this be that Casio has managed to take over TI's monopoly in Germany?

At least in Eastern Germany Casio calculators are very popular.
(And yes, this kind of border still exists in most people's minds...)

Casio is even producing calculators solely targeting Germany.
One example is the new DE Plus series - a modified version of the ES Plus series.

You rarely see TI or HP calculators here in Saxony.

I see. I wonder if they'll eventually break into other markets...
