Hey, TI makes more than calcs. I doubt they'll be so restrictive on their tablets since they're not educational focused. Probably a completely different branch of the company.

when I saw it wasn't a RickRoll, I half-expected the screen to be at most 16 level greyscale.  :P

EDIT: now to see how many of the "If TI made a PC OS" signs are true ;)

Don't forget later versions will mysteriously have less RAM...


Spoiler For Projects:

My projects haven't been worked on in a while, so they're all on hiatus for the time being. I do hope to eventually return to them in some form or another...

Spoiler For Pokemon TI:
Axe port of Pokemon Red/Blue to the 83+/84+ family. On hold.

Spoiler For Nostalgia:
My big personal project, an original RPG about dimensional travel and a few heroes tasked with saving the world.
Coding-wise, on hold, but I am re-working the story.

Spoiler For Finale's Super Insane Tunnel Pack of Doom:
I will be combining Blur and Collision Course into a single gamepack. On hold.

Spoiler For Nostalgia Origins: Sky's Story:
Prequel to Nostalgia. On hold, especially while the story is re-worked.

oh yeah, also lets not forget this is the first os, so TI will surely do a quick update and lock it.. then they take away the wifi cuz that's not what the teachers want :p

edit:
One (1) “lock” switch
I wonder what that does  ;)

edit 2: ohh get this:
Yes, you read that right. Texas Instruments (TI) is charging $2,259 (plus shipping and handling) for the OMAP Blaze, a tablet now pre-orderable from the Web site of its manufacturing partner SVTronics.
