HP Prime FW for 2023?

[parisse]

If you have a look at https://www.amazon.com/Best-Sellers-Grap...cts/172523, you will see that the ti84 is about the same price than the ti nspire cx 2 (non CAS), but about 10* more popular, despite the fact that the nspire cx 2 hardware is much more powerful than the ti84. This shows that the educational market is very conservative: even the marketleader in the US (TI) can not displace an old generation calculator with a new generation one. A counterexample is Numworks in France, where a newcomer could reach 1/3 of the marketshare in about 5 years, but there are reasons very specific to the French market that can not be duplicated worldwide, and Numworks marketshare in the US seems still very small.

Now one could design a graphic calculator without targetting the educational market, but who would buy it? Young people will not, and old generations will use hp41/48/49/50 or DM42 for scientific calculators.
And one should not underestimate the work required to build a reliable software for a graphic calculator...

In my opinion, our best hope is something like ExistOS on the Prime G1 and/or convince Moravia to find a way to open the source the Prime (with restrictions related to exam mode)
