yeah, all you need is an 82, 85, or 92 :)

seriously, though, with built in asm support (all calcs you mentioned have
it), there has been less demand for shells, and so supply has gone down
(remember that from social studies class?).  in any case, plusshell is making
a leap in that direction.  and besides, the 89 has only been out for 2 or 3
months, so you can't really complain...
