TI officially announced the TI-82 Advanced Edition Python today by adding it to their lineup of graphing calculators on education.ti.com.

Critor broke the news this morning over on TI-Planet with a full article going into the advertised specs and some speculation about its hardware. I strongly recommend you go take a look at that thread to get all the details but here is a summary of noteworthy points:
- It seems likely this contains the hardware of a TI-83 Premium CE Edition Python given the advertised specs and the relatively small amount of time between the release of that calculator and this one.
- I'm surprised they decided to stick with the TI-84 Plus style case (like the TI-82 Advanced because they haven't removed it, but I'm not so sure about that because the newest we've seen was manufactured in early 2018.
- It will have an exact math engine like the TI-83 Premium CE and TI-83 Premium CE Edition Python.
- Of course, like the old TI-82 Advanced, the Python Edition will have the USB port on the top, so it can't be the exact same PCB as a TI-83 Premium CE, but I would expect just a rearranging of the board rather than a full redesign.
- Just like the TI-82 Advanced, there's no assembly language support.
As soon as the calculator is available, you can rest assured that a more in-depth look and teardown will be available on Cemetech and elsewhere.
