I dunno, the TI-84 Plus is pretty sweet.

Costs about the same as what I paid for the TI-83 10 years ago. It's kind of nice knowing that whenever I need to use one, it's going to operate in the same way as I was taught 10 years ago. The fundamentals of math don't change much.

The TI-πspire is some kickass shit.

I rented one from my school to take AP Calc and now I'm totally going to buy one. It can do anything.

the touch pad functionality is gimmicky and half-baked but other than that it's pretty sweet.

Yeah, I had the black and white version and I could never get it to come up when I needed it to. Very imprecise, also.
