Moderated TI BA II plus professional financial calculator

The TI" stands for Texas Instruments; and it's, not surprisingly, a
financial calculator produced by them available from many places including Amazon. As for use by JAWS, I doubt that there would be any way to do this. I'd be delighted to learn that I'm wrong. |

If I was much younger than I am now I'd want one too, back then I still had vision and had an HP82G programmable graphing calculator. That thing was more like a handheld computer in a calculator case.

At this point in my life a talking four function calculator with percent and memory suits me just fine. Gene... On 7/28/2022 4:47 PM, Greg Daniel wrote:

I believe that the American Printing House for the Blind sells the TI-84 modified scientific calculator. I have always wanted to own one, but am currently waiting for my rich uncle to die in the poorhouse! Greg -----Original Message-----

It sounds like a handheld calculator you buy at a store or Amazon. I suspect you won't be able to make it talk. I was a financial planner for 20 years, and I only found one talking handheld financial calculator that could do the basics like present value and future value. It could not do more complex calculations, like internal rate of return. I used it to help me pass one Chartered Financial Consultant exam, but never use it for client work. I relied on learning and using formulas in Excel. I hope my quick thoughts help. Randy Meyer -----Original Message-----
