Hey guys I'm starting IB real soon and I was comtemplating on whether to buy the TI-nspire or the TI-84+ SE. What's the difference in these two calc besides memory ROM? Can you get those handy 'apps' avl for the TI-84+ on the TI-nspire? I will be using the ti84+ keypad on the nspire, but do you think it'll be hard to cope up with anyone using the ti-84/83?

Is the TI-nspire permitted in Phy HL & Chem SL? I know it's permitted in Math. I would like to know which calc you recommend.

By the way, I will be taking Math HL.

Help would be appreciated, Thanks :)
