Well, all the APPs that come with the titanium are free for the non-titanium, so that's not a very good choice, and although there is more RAM, one might as well have gotten a V200, but the V200 doesn't have USB, which was my vote. That USB port will be the spawn to so many hacks and external devices (no longer will people have to build a CF card reader themselves, just drivers for already existing ones!)

The titanic comes with the CellSheet application which would cost $15. But other than that the rest are free.

Does anyone even use the CellSheet app, I wonder...

<< It has more RAM >>

It does? According to the details page, it has the same as the regular 89.

Also, if you click (Web Page) it'll take you to the graphing calculator comparison by TI. That states (on page 3) that all three 68k calculators have equal RAM.

Yes, the 89 Titanic has the exact same amount of RAM than all other recent TI-68k calculators (legacy 89, 92+, V200).
That's a bad entry in the survey, what's more it is often chosen...

Dude, I don't think many people would buy and 89 Titanic. Do you know just how much that thing would break? :)

Oops. The, not and.

interesting... i never knew that the original 89 has 188k of RAM...

Surprise.

It looks coooooooooollll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

t'is opinionated

I want one, but my friend just got one and it has some problems running some of the games that are for the original 89, too bad. it was supposed to be a great calculator. And I'm still sitcking to my TI-96 idea plans for the best calculator to ever be made. (just search the site for TO-96, it should come up.)

TI-96, sorry about that.

I want to buy a TI-89 Titanium because I only have a TI-83+ and the TI-89 itself has better games than the latter, so I might as well buy the better version of the 89. Also, my friend just bought a TI-84+ Silver Edition and he likes to show it off. I need something better to show off. Oh, and by the way, my math teacher thinks it's called the TI-89 Titanic :)

lol

I already asked this, but whatever LOL. Does anyone know why a screen on a TI-89 reg would all of the sudden have a different contrast on two different sides of the screen. I have already tried all of the usual (taking out batteries, etc...) HELP! Thank you for your help.

Well, unless you've been running assembly programs that screwed up your screen output, then It's most likely a problem with the actual screen itself. A lot of those type of screens are divided into sections for faster readouts, so you might be able to buy a new screen and replace it, but I have no idea how you'd find the right one. Of course, it could just be software problems, try reloading the OS.

1-800-TI-CARES

I don't think that is toll-free.

I thought all 800's were toll free. besides, the charge is worth it if they can fix your calculator

Actually, I think all 1-800's are Tolled.

All 1-800 and 1-888 numbers are toll-free 1-900 numbers are toll-full.
