Some ClassPad buyer questions....
#1
Posted 14 September 2003 - 03:21 AM
However, I have some questions first....
1) Does it contain a link to the computer?
2) Does it support Mac OS X?
3) Does it have some sort of calendar program on it?
Thanks.
For question 1, Casio's site says unit to unit, but Classpad.org says both (I think) so I am unsure...

In its box, there is a CD Rom which contain Classpad Manager (Program Link) and Userguide in many languages. There are also a USB cable and 3 pin cable. I try to connect the Classpad to the computer, it is easy.
May i ask you what Mac OS X mean ? and what is your country?
I am from Viet Nam.

And mac OS X? You haven't heared about apple computers? This are special computers not 100% compatible to
IBM that run faster than IBM PC's and are cheaper but don'T run all windows/dos software. The newes apple computers
run with Mac OS X as operating system. (just like you use windows (except mac os surely doesn't crash as often as windows does

2) Support Mac OS X -- Maybe, I can find out and let you know
3) Calander - No, not yet. I'd imagine someone is bound to write one if Casio doesn't.

Thanks everyone. CrimsonCasio, can you also please give me an e-mail address so that I can "persuade" them to release a Mac version? Thanks SoftCalc also!I'll look into it, I'll try to find out if Casio intends to release a Mac version, I know the final version has yet to be released.

If we knew how to upload exe files to the classpad then I'm sure it would be very easy to do that, in the mean time I am writing a little task manager program that lets you write down any notes you have for the week (organized by day). of course I cant keep track of what day it is or anything...3) Calander - No, not yet. I'd imagine someone is bound to write one if Casio doesn't.

It is rather sure that there will be a mac version of the Classpad Manager.A Mac version of the Classpad Manager is not available at this time. If one will be available in the future in unsure.
Casio can't discriminate so large number of Mac users.

The speed of USB 1.1 port is 12Mbps ! But the maximum speed of CP 300's I/O USB port is 115200Kbps !
Why ?

1. There's no Macintosh support
2. There's no SI unit conversion capability built in
Right now, I mainly use my TI 92 Plus. But the form factor of the ClassPad is so nice, I use it too, fairly often.
