communicate with other calculators (to play games or chat) over a wireless
connection.

» Xpand
The Voyage 200 has 2.7 MB of flash memory, but only 1 MB is available for the user as archive space. With Xpand by Olivier Armand, all of it can now be used as archive memory. Xpand patches your operating system to allow full usage of the flash without interfering with the ability to install flash applications.
BASIC PROGRAMMING
BASIC programming on the Voyage 200 is nearly identical to that of the 89, 92, and 92 Plus.
