from what i read on ti nspire page they are not planning on discontinuing the 68k and z80 series so thats a good thing, they're just adding the nspire to their production lines. I hope people will not quit buying 84+/89t tho

Something tells me the Nspire won't sell very well after the first few months. Though there will always be the people who assume the newest calculator is the best calculator and rush to buy it.
Are there any online petitions to give the Nspire programmability in the next OS yet?

DJ Omnimaga · « **Reply #18 on:** August 21, 2007, 06:08:00 am »

Idk, but if it doesnt sell well maybe if people tell them they should add programming (maybe they'll add apps support that allow programming basic/running assembly?) maybe they'll do

I tried to start a petition like this... no one was with me at the time though.

in the mean time, non graphical quadratic solvers if it's going to have non graphical basic.

Lame. Pure and simple. What was TI thinking? They sparked a whole programming community with their products in the past. What's up with this move?

Yes, I agree completely with you. I think TI is being so selfish and stupid and conceited and foolish and... dang, I'm out of adjectives. Hehe; this is funny, it's my first post and I'm already complaining.

No cool applications for the TI-Nspire, eh? Looks like I'll be getting a TI-89 Titanium then, now that I can actually afford one...

Cool when ylou do please download F zero its awesome!

And in response to your forum signature it should be fixed soon. It,s because one of the member was abusing the bbcode and it went out of our control so the only way was to completly disable it

but now he doesnt cause as much trouble and was warned he would be banned if he did

This was TI's response to my "angry letter":

QUOTE

Since the TI-Nspire is such a new product, some of the features of previous calculators were left off, such as programming. As more development is done, Texas Instruments will continue to update the operating system and add more advanced programming to the TI-Nspire.

That's good.

DJ Omnimaga · « **Reply #28 on:** October 01, 2007, 08:30:00 am »

For some reasons I believe TI is not trying to make calc gaming fade away from calcs. It would be contradictory since they intended to make some TI-BASIC commands from older calcs usable in calc games (even though the language was slow a**)

But my TI manual date back in early 2001 (and it seems to be 1999 edition) so it has been a long while since they said this

Liazon · « **Reply #29 on:** October 01, 2007, 10:17:00 am »

^.^ indeed. besides, TI probably has one of the strongest dev communities (for games ^.^) among graphing calcs. although it seems to have broadened to so much more in the past few years (emus, more assemblers, etc).
