Looks like a nice calc but in not really interested in getting a new calc anymore. Good to know TI got their c together CPU wise though.

EDIT : What the hell ,do they compare the CE with a freaking Graph 35+? It's like comparing a palm with an Iphone!
I think the 35+ was the FX-9750GII with a SH4 processor, right?

Nope I have a g35+ and it's an SH3. Concerning my surprise, it's mostly because I would have compared the CE to the CG-10/20 and not a monochrome calc. It's va bit unfaire and biaising but well. Sorry for having shocked someone.

How is it unfair ?

The comparison with the fx-9750GII only deals with mathematics.
And from this point of view, fx-9750GII is the same thing as a Prizm fx-CG10/20.

It was probably because the 9750GII ROM provides about 100 times less memory to the user than the 83PCE (28 KB RAM on a 9750GII ROM vs 3150-3222 KB (150 KB RAM and 3 MB Archive) on a Premium CE), and twice less total memory if flashed with a 9860G ROM, so Eiyeron probably considered its features and user specs much inferior to the 83PCE (the PRIZM has 16 MB of Flash). When comparing calculators, some people only takes technical specifications into account. On the other hand, Critor has a point, since the comparison, as he says, was only about its math features (in fact I don't think the PRIZM even supports exact mode, so for that it's actually inferior to the 9750GII)

Read my edited post. I only meant that there could have been a bias because the color screen which appeals mroe than the B&W screen.

So it appears that TS Promotions ships internationally. I signed up on their site and during checkout we can select any country in the billing info page. However, the 83PCE is still not available for sale in France. Also, another site I forgot the name of has it for 100 euros, so I am curious if TS Promotions will charge that much or 88.88 like Jaretty...

SO the TI-83 Premium CE is now available at Jaretty! If you are TI-Planet member and mention the TI-Planet offer during the purchase, as instructed at http://tiplanet.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=41&t=16533 , then you can get it for 97.88 USD (88.88 euros). Unfortunately, Jaretty doesn't ship outside europe, so it looks like those in America who don't mind French keypads will not be able to get a CE calc for $30 cheaper.

Meanwhile, TS Promotions has yet to get the calculator in stock and LDLC charges 100.78 euros for it (although that's still cheaper than the American model, but the higher shipping costs begins to take their toll there).

In fact, so far, the TI-Planet/Jarrety offer is to get the USB wall charger for free, as the public price without the charger is 88.88 eur too (though Jarrety will change it to reflect a competitor (like TSP) selling it at a lower price).

Being in Canada I see the lack of graphing calc selling disturbing...

Bureau en Gros sells them, but they only have the TI-83+, 84+, 84+CSE, 89T, Nspire CX and fx-CG10 in stores. All other stores only carry them online. You can also get tye fx-9750Gii, 9860Gii, 9860Gii-S and fx-CP400 on Staples website, as well as Best Buy website.


EDIT: WOAH in France they charge $120 (around 90 euros) for a FX-9750Gii. WTF??????? O.O O.O (it's over twice as much as over here)
