Anyone else do this? At least for my generation, the cool thing to do in the back of high school math class was to pretend to punch equations into your Texas Instruments graphing calculator while your aging math teacher recited the lesson. But we weren’t doing our homework: we were doing programming! Our “TI” calculators came with a stripped down version of BASIC, with simple if-then loops, variable storage, key capture and everything.

This is why I’m loving Phil Nichols’ nerdy Atlantic article on his own TI-82 calculator experiences, and why some new gadgets at school—like the iPad—aren’t teaching kids the same thing.

This is a cool idea.
Could you print out forms? Sure. But I love the analog, kinetic feel of this concept so much.
Imagine, if you will, you’re doing some mobile app development — maybe some basic brainstorming or wireframing.
Wouldn’t it be cool if it felt like you were holding the device you were designing for?
