hmm.. I doubt that. If anything related to memory, it'd be an increase internally i'd say. That's my opinion.

They should have a sound support(at least, 2.5mm port at nspire itself, not TI-84 keypad)

BTW regarding C, C is essentially Asm after it's compiled. There is as little difference as to an Axe prog once compiled. The only way you could tell would be by looking at the source code. Ther is no way to allow C and prevent Asm, and no reason to either.

but if they have a C compiler already, it saves us time of making one from scratch

We dont need to make one, we have gcc :) of course, we could use theirs to build gcc :P I wouldn't trust them to make a bug free hello world, personally.

so umm.. I wonder though why is it that your teacher can't tell us anything other than what is already said until after 'winter break'. Also what is the time frame for the mentioned 'winter break' that we are waiting to get through?

The Texas Instruments T^3 Conference is being held from February 25-27.  I would say it is a safe bet that this "groundbreaking" Nspire update will be released during this time frame or very close to it.

That said, I wonder if TI will eventually release a TI-Nspire memory expansion pack. Maybe they're making OSes large purposely to eventually make people buy more Flash. :P
Where would the memory go?

It would be cool if they made an adapter for the bottom port that allows connecting an SD card :D

It would be the sd interface, with a proprietary form factor, no doubt. Kinda like what nintendo did with gamecube memory cards.
