  An earlier post mentioned that data aquisition add-ons would be available
for TI-82 and an upgraded TI-85 soon. Would someone at TI like to comment on
this, especially what it will take to use this with a TI-85 ?  Specifically,
can a TI-85 be somehow upgraded ?  Does it have a replacable ROM ? If not,
will there be a big discount for old TI-85 owners wanting to buy a new TI-85
?
   I am also curious about TI-82 /TI-85 differences.  I've heard that the
TI-82 has the ability to do port I/O with function calls.  This would explain
why it's ready for add-ons.  Since the TI-85 costs more than the 82 I would
like to know what it does that the TI-82 doesn't  It seems like the superior
I/O would make the 82 cost more, not less.
