AvantGo would fare much better than HTML. Or we could develop our own web page code... .tiht83p (TI Hypertext 83p)AndySoft wrote:Actually, no. The processor in the calculator would just be too weak to handle HTML with reasonable speed (not to mention TCP in general). Add to that the very limited screen space, and it's definitely not worth it (for web browsing).
... eww what a long extension

You know, there is a web browser for calculator by Kerm Martian. http://www.ticalc.org/archives/files/fi ... 25917.htmlcurrahee wrote:AvantGo would fare much better than HTML.

he also has plans for a modem, a networking hub, a color screen(using color lcd's behind the normal screen), and a program to be able to use a mouse plugged into the TICI 1.0 hub. Here is a complete listing of his files:

Ehhhh...that 'browser' is only 800 bytes large. Either old Kerm's come up with some miracle compression that would shame all of MIT, or somebody's sellin' snake oil. No offense to Kerm or snake oil.
My diet consists of nails, code-stealers, and HP fans.

I hope he offers a free modem ISP service for his new TI calculator TICI vision

How nice, three year old Basic shit from Kerm... How useful posting that in any discussion...

I'm not saying I believe it, I have never really looked into whether it works or not, just putting it out there, as we were discussing web browsing, and he has a web browser, and plans for a calc modem.CoBB wrote:I'm always amazed when I see someone actually believing all that gibberish.
Just curious, did anyone ever try installing the led's to make a color screen? I once thought about doing it on my calc. : - )

Before I saw Kerm's, I built my own using 3 colour filters and some bulbs. The result was very bad; worse flickering than greyscale and the resulting colours were muddy and unclear (the green reflection from the back of the LCD looks crap - using properly coloured backlights might look better).CompWiz wrote:Just curious, did anyone ever try installing the led's to make a color screen?
