Wow that actually looks nice, but I hope they didn't change the hardware too much to the point of preventing even more ASM games to work.
They'll change the OS signing keys just to screw with us.

Well, I like the size of the Pocket :) They finally got it back to 1996 sizes.

The LCD looks really shiny. Does it have a glass cover over it now? That would be nice.

This is not 84 Pocket related, but TI is definitively trying hard to push the TI-Nspire over other calcs O.O

Indeed. This is insane. I mean, they offer the 84+, yet instead of promoting it they suggest ppl to buy another product.

Also lol I thought the 84+ looked better. On pics it seemed to look better, but I never got to see one outside its package in person until today. :P

ANother thing I don't undertstand is why aren't the 68k calc on the back?
Probably the ti 84(+) market is doing too good, and the ti-nspire too bad..

They probably don't want to admit that the 68k calcs are more powerful than the Nspire. :P

I think it's because they're for a different kind of students. I doubt they would even be allowed in hi school over here. Notice how the CAS is missing from there too.

They mean an official emulator or something along those lines, I think.

And how are 'normal' students supposed to know that :P ?
Anyway, happily 'Consider the Nspire' doesn't say on the back of the package of the Casio Prizm. ;D(I hope)

Wait, there are "spreadsheets" on the TI-84 Plus Silver Edition? Or do they just mean it has CelSheet installed by default, but not other calcs? :P

Yeah it's kinda unclear lately. Some ppl migth think it's just a linking software and TI makes it sound like the linkign software isn't even included with the 84+ (even though it is)
