Actually one of the Handspring Visor runs by default at 33MHz and I have heard
somebody saying it could overclock it up to 45Mhz.

That would be the best choice for a chess program for Palm, leaving far behind
the III and VII series in term of playing strength.

BTW Chris, if you are interested in a free version of Chess Tiger for Palm (text
mode version), just send an email to support@chesstiger.com
