This is nice, but why would you want to do email, IRC, and newsgroups on a tiny ti-83 screen when you can do it on your computer? Don't say "portability" - you're not gonna haul around an external modem in your backpack. Pretty worthless in my opinion :).

Well, I'd haul around an external modem. But I'm also the one who is making this program so I guess I don't count =).

If i had an 83, id "haul" around my external modem. I dont know what kind of modems you have that would make it to where itd be a pain, but my USR sportie fits in my pocket, so its not a pain at all to have in a backpack..

So is it a bad thing I carry around, on average, three modems and a 4 cdrom switcher just incase? *grin*

I think the idea of connecting the ti to the internet is cool. Can use this same program to connect to a BBS? Also, when can we expect a release date for other versions of the ti.

I would be happy if some one ported it to the 89. And can you use a 14.4 modem?

Will they make this program 4 ti-85??

Will this work with a Mac modem? I have an X2 USRobotics modem and a Supra 28.8/14.4 modem. It would also be nice for this to work with a TI-86!

My school has a bunch of old 286's in the back of most class rooms and 9600 external modems plugged into each. I just plug the cable into my graph link between classes we have 10 min passing time and it only takes 3 to get anywhare so this is real cool

Oh, man! if that relly works, you just HAVE to make a 86 version.
Here are my suggestions:

1)Enable it to connect to the IRC based chat servers
2) (If possible, I doubt it though) Enable it to connect and recieve games/progs from an internet site. I'm sure if this were possible, and someone actully made a program capable of doing it TI-CALC.ORG would make a section/interface for uploading/downloading stuff. And just so all you hecklers out there, I am aware that many of the games posted are zipped, I'm talking about a raw game.

Just think of it, you'd be able toupdate your games/progs on the run, without having to wait for your comp to start up. Man would that be great!

One question though, the screenshot says Gameservers. Is that possible on the calc?
That would be cool with Tetris.

Imagine this:
You log on, a chat screen pops up.
it is a real-time chat. REAL TIME.
you are able to chat about games, highscores, game development, teach asm programming (maybe), Challenge other people to a game of tetris, Maze 3D (that is if he makes it 2player), Descent (the upcoming game!).
It would be a pain to program, but it would be great! A meeting of all internet capable calcs on a chat type server.

Well, that's my two cents (yeah right, more like $9.50)

oh,well. Enough of my jabbering. I just hope this gives people ideas.

HEheheheheh... if i only had a TI-Graphlink... there are phone jacks all over my school... and i happen to have a usr 9600 modem just sitting here by my old puter... any one wnat to sell me a TI-Graphlink on the cheap? :)

This is cool and all but I have an 86. Where can I get info on this Clem guys thing. I have a local account and I think it's Unix. How can I tell without calling them to ask. Can I dial up my isp with my terminal and type in a command, what command do I type.

Is this clem thing compatible with Rascal. It's the bomb. I love the mem-lock features and password.

That's all for now.

I know this must be a repeated question, but what about trying to create something like that for the TI-92? It would turn it into a great simplified "labtop"!

The title explains it all. I've seen the screenshots... and wonder if win83 is actually coming... ALONG WITH ip83!!?? (that was a huge "sentence")
Congradulations to Justin on making such a great product. And wish him luck if he attempts the IP version...

Sorry... I meant win TI
