That is what I am hearing since we will not have it til second half I have some time to still look. The 89 is completely out you can't use it on the testing .. the 84 + I bought I am going to hold on to for now she said it "would do" but it is not the color nsipre they want it is the other that has a 84 keyboard that will switch out no stores here carry it so e-bay or amazon looks to be it. I would hate to just "do" ..lol..but please if you hear of one please post I will keep checking back often Thanks everyone!!!

Just when I thought I had this down.. apparently it depends on "WHICH" teacher you get .. The one he has this year is wanting the TI-Nspire instead of the TI 84 + ... back to the drawing board!!

I have heard that but was afraid that there wouldn't be enough and he would need for any at home work also... We may start with it staying home till we know one way or the other. This is just year 1 of 4 that he will need it, so I don't think it will be a waste and you can use it for the ACT..We don't start until Wed so I will know more then.

Ouch! that is why I am looking at the TI84 plus instead of the Inspire.. Not sure I want him to take one so expensive to school. $100 is bad enough $150-$160 would be heartbreaking. I have went back & forth on which to get I think I will stick with the latter of them....thanks all for the advice .. Going for sales tax holiday (almost 10% off and my mom works at walmart so another almost 10%) should help, not alot of deals that look any better right now.. wish I could find one for $60..

Looks like it holds more too thanks for the link, it did help... not sure how much difference it will make but now I know what to look for. More is always better when it comes to stuff like this, if we skimp we usually end up buying it twice..

What is the difference between the TI 84 Plus and the TI 84 Plus Silver? I am new to all of this so please be patient .. I am in TN and was planning to take advantage of the sales tax weekend this week. Just trying to find the best deal. I will take a look at eBay this afternoon. Thanks for the tip!

Watch the Office Max sneak peek deals...I found out the hard way that thier adds are different depending on where you live. They sent me an sneak peek that was completely wrong. The cashier asked where everyone kept getting the prices we were asking for, I explained it was what they e-mailed us, she was like oooohh ok and kept going.

Really need a good deal on a graphing calculator they are asking for (texas instrument) TI84 plus calculator or above (TI89 or TI Inspire) ? any idea's?
