i have had this calculator now since January '07. i have to admit i am thoroughly satisfied with the service it has provided me. it has been real helpful in my statistics course, although i had to download the application from ti's website. the application is wonderful and easy to use. i use it for my statistics and calculus courses. i use it most in calculus. however, you have to be aware that the calculator is just a calculator and won't solve simple problems the way they are supposed to be solved. although it will find the derivative of a trig function, it does NOT use the chain rule and therefore will give you a wrong answer. i rely on the calculator ONLY to check simple solutions. maybe i had missed something and it will catch it. overall, i am satisfied with the calculator. i like it, and i DISLIKE the ti-83(i've had for years now) and ti-84, although i bought the ti-84 because it was a "requirement" for my stats course. had i known that the ti-89 is easier to use and better for me, i wouldn't have spent [$] on the ti-84 that's just sitting on my desk accumulating dust. i would recommend the ti-89 to anyone because of its ease of use and practical applications.

I bought this after my TI-84+ self destructed the night before am engineering exam. The interface is not intuitive, but there is a lot going on in the background. Honestly, I knew what I needed for my exam, and this calculator wasn't confidence inspiring. It took a bit of relearning to find matrices...

With the stock manual you can muddle through a lot of basic stuff, but the big powerful functions are tricky to find.

The display sucks, period. Tiny pixelated symbols that nearly require a magnifying glass? That's so 1990 (I had one of the first TI-81's, the screen quality hasn't improved by much). I guess I just expect more since I own an iPod Touch...? If I could do it over, I would get a TI-84 again...

    This TI-89 is very helpful in my Engineering and Math classes. It is better than my TI-84 because I can double check my work with integrals and derivatives.

    Gift for my 17 year old son. High ambition for Engineering degree. Great for Math and Science. Recommended by school. School has some to lend to students but rotate each semester. He wanted his own to take pride in and take care of. Good deal with discount and free shipping.

    Comments about Texas Instruments® TI-89 Titanium Graphing Calculator:

    Does just about any calculation or graphing application you need. Somewhat difficult to master, lots of manual reading, or find someone who knows to demonstrate. Most teachers are familiar with this product and teach how to use it. Pretty plain black case, no glitz. We have been through several of these, with 4 kids, they tend to burn up after a year or so. If you don't use them over the summer, recommend removing the batteries, which helps them last longer. Once they break, there are "things to try" to restart/reset the calculator, but because they are so complicated, once it's broke it's pretty much dead.

          Yes, this calculator is programmable.

        • A:

          Not really. You can save an equation symbolically by just typing it in and pressing enter. This will save it like it does anything else you calculate. You can also use the copy/ paste function to keep reusing calculations. I do this frequently and it works great!

        Does TI-89 Titanium offer all the programs that TI-84 Plus Sliver can do? Are these two calculators suitable for different courses. For example,TI-84 Plus mentions biology but not TI-89. TI-89 mentions calculus but not TI-84.

      • Q:

        is this calculator able to switch from Reverse Polish Notation (RPN) to Standard Algabraic Notation (SAN)?????
        Asked on 3/24/2011 by The Mexican Geek from Somewhere in Texas

        1 answer

        • CUSTOMER CARE

          A:

          I understand that you would like to know about the TI-89 Titanium and if it can do RPN (Reverse Polish Notation). I will be more than happy to answer your questions.
          At the present time, no TI graphing calculator has RPN capability. RPN is generally used in solving logic expressions.
          Since TI graphing calculators are programmable, it is possible to write or download a program to add this functionality. However, a program of this type is not currently available in the TI program archives.
          Another resource you can use to find answers to your questions, example calculations and other information is the manufactures Knowledge Base. The Knowledge Base is accessible to you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

          It doesn't appears as though it'd be covered, but we'd still recommend calling TI at (800) 842-2737. They may have some tips or be able to help you get it fixed!
