A few hundreds CAS+ in France, and a few dozens ClickPad prototypes in France should be nearer to the truth.

Worldwide, it's much more than that.

It's not because they aren't sold online anymore now that everybody cares only about the CX, that such prototypes have disappeared.

There are fewer Clickpad prototypes than CAS+ prototypes, Adriweb... and unlike owners of Clickpad prototypes, owners of CAS+ prototypes have no way to upgrade that scam.
TI is fully aware of the problem. We have told them that they should release one OS version, so that at least, scammed customers can unbrick their calculators. We have told them about some schemes that would make it possible for them to show they care about scammed customers (e.g. a calculator exchange offer... for several thousands of calculators, it would even enable them to get rid of unsold Clickpad stocks). They don't seem to care, since they haven't moved on that front for nearly a year.

However, it's true that the number of production Clickpad handhelds dwarfs the number of Clickpad prototypes and the number of CAS+ prototypes.
