TI is just stupid (or arrogant), they don't even know their own hardware.

Oh, I don't know.
The people at customer cares seem to want to help (sometimes)

I think what they send is scanned, then ti'ified to meet their vows of silence.

flash apps take up rom space. does that help you with your ram questions?

what do they have to gain in avoiding the question other than making themselves look worse?


exactly

On the phone I talked to one.

Just remember, it's not their fault that it's this way. If you can, feel free to rant to upper management, but don't rant at customer service. It's not their fault :P

I think that this is the story

first, TI was a very nice company, supporting education and developers

then they turned into an evil, money pinching cooperation

I apologize for the delay in response, I had to do further research on your question.

Seriously? I personally don't believe that someone working as a representative at TI hadn't noticed such a big change. Maybe he's assuming that others hadn't noticed yet :P

hahaha lol i looked at page one and it said that you can't downgrade below 1.7 hahaha of course you can with nleash!!! hehehe

i agree with this. the release of the nspire showed how much they wanted to limit the programming (with crap basic until os1.7) and stop people hacking into a calc. this has been discussed before. and of course TI knows (if their IQ is high enough) that people in communities such as omnimaga will always find a way to defy TI's 'orders" heheh

What if they order us to defy their orders? :P

But, yea, I was pretty amazed at how bleek and baron the built-in programming features were on the nspire. Even now, with the later OSes, it's still nothing compared to the programming on even a TI-81.

Soo, basically, their newest model has the worst features besides the scientific calcs...

I wouldn't say that - more like a different feature set, just as rich but not suited to a programmers purposes.
