Hey all,
After reading all the stuff about the TI-89 and its effect on the Math IIC, i went out and got one this weekend. I've played with it for about an hour and must say, it is an incredible piece of machinery. I also got the computer link thingy. What i want to ask you all is:

1) what additional programs do you suggest i have/download for the math IIC?
2) what stuff should i be able to do on the calculator? its really complicated and i've messed around and found out to do a lot of basic stuff (factor, solve, graph etc) but anything else that comes standard that i should focus on learning?

Thanks in advance for any and all advice

1) download the program from www.ticalc.org called Math IIC Formulas (or something really close). Other programs that would help that I noticed at that site include: logs w/ any base, heron's area formula (finds area if you know all 3 sides), stuff like that. They have hundreds of programs.
