The TI-89 is identical to the TI-92 Plus except it doesn't contain the
geometry software, and it has a different screen & keyboard layout.  It
is not like the 85/86 line.  The TI-89 is compatibly with the TI-92 Plus
(check out http://www.ti.com/calc/docs/faq/89faq008.htm).  The TI-89 has
FLASH ROM so you probably won't have to buy another calculator.
