well, i think the overclocking mod would include adding a switch to switch speeds from 6 to 15 mHz and back
remember me as a time of day...

Wouldn,t a backlight also eat batteries a lot? I heard the GBA SP eaten batteries like crazy compared to the older GBA

Yes, it probably would.  However, How cool would it be to program in the dark! ;D

Depending on the type of light you're using it might not take very much. Plus if you got the point of modding your calculator to have a back light you could just add a seperate battery thing for the light. Just a thought :)

Now if only WabbitDS was finished and fully functional, this could have been a good alternative for Nintendo DS homebrew users

I'm guessing WabbitDS is a DS emulator?

yeah, it was in the works during the Nintendo DS homebrew craze of 2007 in the TI community,  but it seems to have died.

The subforum in question is at http://www.revsoft.org/phpBB2/viewforum.php?f=34

Wait, no, this is not a DS emulator, it's a Nintendo DS port of WabbitEmu. I guess the fact now several of their softwares starts with Wabbit instead of just WabbitEmu makes it less clear it's WabbitEmu-related x.x

In other word, it's an homebrew app to have a TI-8x emu inside your DS, which, unfortunately, is much less complete than WabbitEmu, from what I heard.

Yeah :P

Mhmm... I have doubts about a DS emu on calc >.>, plus it would be hard with only one screen and no touch screen x.x

On the Nspire I guess the two screens could be scaled down to fit one screen and the nspire d-pad used as some sort of mouse cursor and middle button as touchscreen stuff, but given how the Nspire can't even emulate a TI-89 at full speed, imagine with a Nintendo DS emu, now :P

What about the Ultimate Calculators over at Cemetech? Didn't one have a touch screen pad?

I don't remember, I haven't checked this one in a while. You would need to check further into it.
