I guess some sort of animated GIF on the banner would provide you more virtual space and definitely more flexibility. Would that be too much to ask for?

Yeah, this 'Looking like a terrorist' idea is a very dangerous concept, indeed. Do you still remember the young brasilian electrician ('Jean Charles de Menezes') who was shot dead in London, not a long time ago (22July2005)? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_of_Jean_Charles_de_Menezes .

Fine. Can't wait to have a go! Why so much suspense?

Welcome James!

Hello everyone, great community you have here!
I recently purchased a TI nspire cx and I can't downgrade.
I just want to make sure there is no way to downgrade to 3.1
...

I dunno which are your intentions with OS 3.1, but if you would like to have a go on 'ndless applications', you can always try it using the available nspire emulators.

...
Better said: it WAS quite interesting, until I found out all these terrible issues and problems of the used XCAS!
Now I'm absolutely disappointed about this HP-Prime (and its CAS), and I'll definitely stay with my good old TI-92+/Voyage 200 with its (modified) Derive CAS which is clearly better and more reliable than this 'hobby project' XCAS.

I can understand your point! Probably it's just nowadays life  and we're getting older... It seems it has become a 'de facto' behaviour from many IT companies, like MS, Apple, TI and so forth. It's up to the final customer to pay both the high item's price and also look for bug corrections (which is also very expensive indeed!). This is quite a cheap (although not very honest) way to improve a product without having to allocate extra resources and money.
Please be patient, we need your (HP) help over here.

Another bug: Trying to differentiate the equation (2/3)(x^2+1)^(3/2) gives weird output. Here is the image:

Yeah, that's a very odd output indeed, to say the least? I wonder, have they thoroughly tested symbolic differentiation?

The problem is not the differentiation, the problem is even earlier in the interpretation of the expression (2/3)(x^2+1)^(3/2).

If you enter the same expression but with an explicit multiplication character, i.e. (2/3)*(x^2+1)^(3/2), then everything works fine.
But without this * after (2/3) this expression seems to a completely different thing, not even an usual math expression but a 'function' like f((x^2+1)^(3/2)) with '2/3' as 'name' of the function, i.e. '2/3'(.....). And that's the reason why the differentiation doesn't work for this 'function' of course!
Just try to experiment a bit with this strange expression and you'll see that is not anything you would expect - crazy indeed!

Hi Franz, long time no see. Welcome back!
Yeah, it ought to be something 'stupid' like that! I mean, no implicit times operator! Cheers,

Hm, that particular prime screen looks kinda clumsy IMO, no idea why.

Yeah, I agree. But the idea is a good one, tho. Let's wait until DJ_O has some more spare time to improve it, he can do a lot better for sure!

Delta is a quite well-user greek letter used in almost any science topic, though (math, physics, chemistry...)

You are quite right!

The problem with USA is that they still use the English system (eg miles, Farheneit, pounds) instead of the metric system (km, Celsius, kilograms) that is used almost everywhere else.

Yeah, that reminds me of the old joke: "What do you call a person that speaks two languages? Bilingual. What do you call a person that speaks one language? American."
But "The Times They Are a-Changin", i guess.
