Texas Instruments - TI-89 Graphic Calculator — 

The TI-89 is far more powerful than some of the older models in that it can symbolically evaluate derivatives and integrals, something your TI-83 (and not even MATLAB) can't do. It can even solve differential equations for you. Many of the commands are similar to MATLAB, so if you are used to that, it is good. Programming on the 89 is quite a bit more difficult than on the 83, but still doable. Generally, it seems like an 83 will get you through about pre-calculus, but the 89 will help you go further and will help you in calculus (single and multi variable), differential equations, and linear algebra.

This calculator sucks in terms of fuction accesibility. It takes too many steps to get to certain functions and is way to complicated. Seems like you need loads of free time to practice the thing. It's still i good buy once you get use to it and master the operations. Sometimes i think it's just not worth it cuz it can cause real time wastage
