One more question. Sorry.
Which programming community is bigger? TI NSpire CX or CASIO Prizm? Thanks, again.

Sorry about double posting. There didn't seem to be anyone online on that thread.
But, thanks very much for the answer. I'll be getting the TI Nspire next week...

Also, is the TI Nspire 'future-proof'? I mean, will it last for the next 3 years? That's how long I'm planning to use it for. I don't want to spend this much on a calculator and it become outdated in a few months. Thanks.

So, the TI Nspire is still relevant? Is it 'future-proof'? I mean, will it last for the next 3 years? That's how long I'm planning to use it for. I don't want to spend this much on a calculator and it become outdated in a few months. Thanks.

Thanks.
Also, what does the Student software do? It is worth buying it? Thanks.

Would like to know this as well...

Thanks for the answers.
I'm not planning on cheating- the TI will be mainly for home/class use where we can use textbooks. It will just be easier to put notes on the calculator rather than open the textbook each time. I can't use the TI in exams- I'm in the UK- most of the exams are non-calculator. But, thanks again for all the answers. Really appreciate it!

Thanks for the amazing answers!
So, it would be a good decision to buy the TI Nspire CX CAS if you're thinking of keeping the calculator for a while? Is it 'future-proof'? I don't have the problem of exam restrictions as we only use the calculators in class- exams are non-calculator or calculators are given to you. So, the calculator would be used at home, mostly.
One more question: can you add notes/formulas on the TI Nspire? This is so I save time- I don't need to search through my textbook. If you can add notes, can you search them? Search the title or a keyword? Thanks.

Thanks for the answers.
I might get the Nspire for the programming. Are there any Windows/Online Nspire CX emulators? I've found ones for older calculators but not the Nspire CX.
And, what is the Nspire CX Premium? When do you think it will be released? I don't want to spend a lot on a calculator that will be outdated soon.
Thanks again.

I meant the HP Prime. I know it's not released but do you think it will be better than the TI NSpire CX? I mean what's programming usually like on HP calculators? For example, the screenshots of the Prime's software don't look that good.
So, the TI 89 is better for school? What about other calculators (not TI)? Thanks.

Hi,
I'm looking to buy the TI Nspire CX CAS calculator. I'll be using it in Physics class for graphing and such- not allowed in the exams which are mostly non-calculator. I was going to put formulas/notes in it so I don't need to go back to the textbook each time.
But I've got one question before I take the plunge: can you search your notes? If not, I might be better off getting an older calculator of eBay- physics doesn't need a lot of high end math calculations.
And is there any Windows/Online emulator for the TI Nspire CX? I've found ones for older calculators but not this one. Thanks anyway.

Hi,
I'm looking to get a calculator soon. I'm a teenager, who wants to have the option of games and programmes, but needs a calculator for A-Level Maths (UK). I was going to get the TI Nspire CX CAS but, then, the HP Prism which, also, has CAS was announced. Should I wait for the HP? Which one will have a better programming community? Thanks.
