[Blindmath] Talking Scientific Calculators

[Ken Perry]

Current there are really no hardware calculators that can match the TI-3 or
TI-84 but you can get something as good if your using a PC if you use
something like Octave or Maxima or even mathmatica.

Hi All,
Do you guys think this calculator is advanced enough? I feel students in 
my calc classes can do much more with their calculators like programming 
in equations and stuff. What's the difference between this talking 
calculator and a calculator a sighted student would use? I just checked 
my college's math website and they say the recommended model is a TI 
83+. I'm thinking the Audio Graphing Calculator would probably be my 
best solution then.
Thanks for the feedback thus far.
