All the program would need to do is select one of the calcs to be the 
"server" for the group adn it would select a time that each TI Calc 
could "talk" adn recieve info. it would take precise Sync'n, and alot of 
 time to switch through big groups of calcs.  adn the page would be 
easy. all you have to do is have it send a message to  all the calcs 
that is only addressed to one of them, and that one will be looking for 
its name. it will then beep. BUT it cant cause you have teh RT link 
using the port.


OK well what do you think?
