How much were the 89T calcs ?

I can't imagine using two calcs at the same time during a test... one should be fine. As to whether or not you should get one with a CAS, I don't know.

It would be funny if at a math test, a student had about 20 TI calcs on his school desktop.

Also over Canada, most calcs found on EBay are sold from American sellers and they usually range from $0.01 to $35, but shipping ranges from $40-60 and takes 3-4 weeks.

Congratualtions with your choice!
I hope you enjoy it, like I have. It's actually my favourite calc btw.

Even thought most overs have the titanium, my math teacher hates the titanium edition anyways, lol

Well, my parents just told me that they would buy for the calc, so I got a 89 for $0

Thanks to its USB port, the 89T is clearly better than the other TI-68k models.

I would still like one like that, but I haven't seena great deal yet.
And usb is lovely. Only last year I bough a TI-83+SE with a silverlink, which made my life a lot better. Before that I only had serial, and most of the computers here didn't support that. The only problem is that TI-Connect doesn't work well on mac os x for some reason, which requires me always to use another OS. But perhaps I should poke Jim to install TILP on it.

I routinely have 3 graphing calcs on my desk at school.
Anyway, nice choice! Hope you like your free-ish calc

Will the new version only be for the 84PCSE? What would be nice is if they increased compatibility with the older calcs now that TI-Graph Link is no longer hosted on their server (notice how the TI-Planet links are no longer working).
