Who knows, maybe TI is impressed at what has been done to their calculators and they recognise how many people have become interested in the calcs for the programming. I know I use my calc about half the time just for meaningless programming and the other half to actually make programs that let me explore number patterns and algorithms.

I think that something very *VERY* exciting is going to happen. So wait.. lemme get this straight, that post at UTI was from a TI staff? :O

edit: I still have in mind of what critor had mentioned.. :P (well at least the part about 3D graphing but that's about it)

Loved this place, still the best producers of power metal, and sparked my dreams of coding.

The thing is, BASIC on an Nspire would be soo fast, it would probably compare to a non-15mHz asm program on the 84+.

But if they officially support C I'm gettering the nspire CAS :)

heh.. I don't think that it will be C directly, it will probably be like an IDE or something like that.. That's my guess though.

It is likely that they allow C but not Assembly. They allow C on the TI-89 too.

Oh but wait, they allow Assembly most of their other calculators too xD

yeah.. most likely.... grr I dunno, since its not just asm is it.. hmm hard to tell

Soon enough we'll know :)

although.. I still wonder when their 'back to school' or whatever info will be released since foster did mention 'last week' today

I saw the letter response on UTI. Someone should probably mention in the news that TI might possibly add new programming capabilities and a link to the UTI thread, but to not speculate because they could maybe just be trying to attract new customers from forums like this, only to not put in new programming capabilities (or make a paid SDK) in it.

This could be a response to the Prizm, but again it could just be a lure.

I hope at least they add commands like getkey, Line() and the like and that it's faster than on the Prizm.
