Mine had the black border, i've never seen the other two before. Btw, seeing that graph reminds me of the 83+'s Graph3D app that Kirk Meyer made that was even faster than the 89 :P

I've got one in my hands right now, and its the middle one of the three, the black border.

Swapping the cases of a 83+ and a 89 is a pretty old trick, if slightly cumbersome.

I bought my TI-89 HW1 in 1998 from Adam's Dimension TI website. It looks like the middle one.

I'm still curious if that pic isn't just a photoshop of a TI-83 where only the keys are changed/swapped. It could be an early pic of the 89 from years ago, since the quality isn't too good, but at the same time I wonder if it couldn't be a modified 83 pic from someone who had no TI-89 handy and just the manual, for example.

I'm about 70% sure thats the one my meth teacher has.
Wait, you have a teacher? It's basically smoke or inject, isn't it?

Yeah the most common one is the middle one, with the black borders. I have already seen the right one on internet only and if I remember well, it was realeased with the OS 2.08/2.09, the one wich have a menu like on Titanium.
Then came Titanium models, with OSes 3.XX.

About the left one, I don't know much. I thought at the beginning it was the same as the left one ! Thanks Adriweb for the pic.
Some of my program available here.. :)

I still question the legitimacy of the one with the weird cutoff.
Keep trying.

At the same time I wonder why some random blog would spend this much effort photoshopping a TI-83 Plus or a TI-73 so that it has the TI-89 keys layout...

I wonder why such a picture with a cutoff would even exist if it wasn't for a fake created by somebody. The ink is the right size. The text just, for whatever reason, cuts off at the right side. It has room! Just, the sleek nature of the casing makes it.. weird.
Keep trying.

Maybe he quickly snatched a photo that seemed legit to him from someplace else. In this case from the photoshopper.
