TI customer service in France and other European countries seems pretty good though...
France is one of the best European countries when it comes to TI's support. Over here in Sweden, pretty much everything is terrible... This kinda applies to Casio too.

I hope this update won't get rid of LUA support, that would really suck!

You must have forgotten that this from TI... Yeah... They seem more interested in blocking our ability to use it, than adding and improving features.

At the ti site education.ti.com they say "Graph in 3D Graph and explore functions in a 3D space with the powerful 3D graphing functionality, ideal for science subjects and higher mathematics such as Precalculus and Calculus" but you cannot graph lines and curves with their 3d graphing capability.  This would seem to be a deliberate deception on ti's part so if you are interested in this new capability beware.

Wow that sucks. That said, I bet somebody could write a better 3D graphing program for Ndless anyway.

Personally, my Nspire Clickpad runs OS 3.0.1, but I did very careful before installing the OS to make sure to remove the new Boot2. Also I am relunctant about getting a CX, even if I like to have almost every model.

Well, make3D can certainly do better than that :P

@Dingus, the 3D graphing doesn't need the new hardware anyways, it works on the old ones with the newest OS.

Yeh, but if you put OS 3.0 on the old (Non-cx) hardware thats when the bricking occurs.

Yeah true. I feel bad for all the people who don't frequent calc sites and don't know about TNOC and downloaded OS 3.0.1 while it was available...

Someone should port Graph3D to Ndless 2.0/1

THis might be a good idea to ask in the calculator help section maybe (in a new topic), so people find your question easier. Maybe some people might know.

You still need to sign it though if you want the calc to accept it... and sadly we don't have the keys.

Me to.  The really really big question is what sort of problems are going to be found with the cx models when a lot of them start being used?  Then the really really really big question is what will TI do about them?

I'm one of those idiots who updated without removing the new boot2(my calc didn't brick).... I just want to rewrite an older boot 2 to have the ability to downgrade.

I don't think it's possible to downgrade boot2...
