Subject: Chess Tiger for Palm!! I would have liked it to be for Pocket PC!

I just saw that ChessTiger for Palm is comming out. You get a free text based
version. It will later come in a comersial version with its own graphical user
interface. As a user of a Cassiopeia Pocket PC, I just envy you Palm owners your
Chess Tiger, even if you have to live with a somewhat suboptimal pocket
solution!

In the meantime, both Pocket PC users and Palm users can go to
http://www.exkimo.com~scottlu for the nice PocketChess program. It has nice
graphical user interface. Ok playing strenght, even if its no Tiger!

Below you find the PGN of a game between the two programs. Its not lasting that
long.....

Gambit Tiger at 10m +1 sec for complete game on a 700MHZ PIII, while Pocket
chess is at my 150mhz Cassiopeia.
