production stopped means production stopped. This means it's over. No more 84+SE's are produced in the world, anymore. They are probably selling the remainder of their stock to countries that still sells 84+SE well then they will warn that it's discontinued there too.

Hello,


I have heard nothing to that effect. What you describe was not a bug, but rather, an internal purchasing message.


Thanks,

Also, here is the thing it says when I try to buy online:
IPL: Item 84PLSE/CLM/1L1/W and uom EA not on pricelist USA SRP
is this a bug?

Sorry about the two emails, I accidentally pressed enter last time. I've
been hearing rumors that the TI-84 SE has been discontinued; I am very
disappointed, as I have been saving up money to get on for several months
now. Could you tell me whether this is true? I know several friends who
claim that it has been announced on the German site and others. And they
have told me about their replies. I have tried to add one to my cart online
and it said none in stock. Could you explain this?

Republicans never tell the truth :P
If they're discontinuing it they suck some serious balls, I have an nspire and deal with the horrible keypad em., I do like that the nspries screen is so huge it makes everything on the 84 look 10x better! If the emulator was any better, I'd have no problem with them halting the 84SE Production. Besides, you can hook an HTC Hero into any model of the 84 to charge!
EDIT:
I do own other models of the 84 but not an SE, the SE has a huge amount of flash rom compared to the 84, support for large flash apps like the TI-BOY, (which EPICALLY fails to run on the 84 keypad!).

Ok, so either TI-Cares doesn't know about it yet...
Either there's been an error on 8 TI web pages in 7 different countries.

What does it change? TI-84+SE are produced in only one place: the P-factory in China.
So either they're still produced, either they're not produced any more...

That fact doesn't depend upon your country...

So I've gotten a email back from my guy too. He's asking where this information was posted, and I was going to show him the TI pages that tell it but I can't find any of them. All the previous links just go to the product page. So are there any sites, by TI, that show that this is still being discontinued?

For some reasons I believe it is due to TI being based in Texas, but I am sure there are some non-republicans there ;)

Hey- you're right!

This page: http://education.ti.com/educationportal/sites/SUISSE/productDetail/chf_ti84pse.html (that critor linked to at the start) doesn't have a "Production Stopped" message anymore... however, there's no link on the page to buy it either.

What's going on?

That's strange...

Could someone think it is still produced and edited out that message?

This is strange, really strange. On that, I am going to edit the title of this topic to "TI-84+SE discontinued?" instead of "TI-84+SE discontinued".

Either someone in Europe did a mistake on the respective TI pages, either someone in USA is still thinking the calc is produced and reverted the changes on the european pages that stated the discontinuation of the calc, or TI just can't make up their mind...

It seems this page no longer lists the 84+SE as discontinued anymore either:

http://education.ti.com/educationportal/sites/SUISSE/productCategory/chf_graphing.html

However, the TI-82 STATS is still listed as discontinued...

O_o perhaps their decision to discontinue it caused an outrage and now they take it back?

I'm wondering if TI is just discontinuing the calc in some countries, and it's the "production stopped" message that's in error?

Because what TI has been denying is the discontinuing of the calc- not that it's going to be no longer available in some countries. It might explain the "what country are you from?"

I checked all the links critor posted earlier in this thread- on the sites where the calc had been listed as production stopped, the "production stopped" message has been removed. On the sites, however, where the calculator has vanished, it's still gone.
