I get 414 NPS on my Palm IIIx. OK, I have overclocked it to 26MHz (from 16) and
removed the wait-states.
You definitely need to go to PalmGear and get AfterBurner 3.0.
With this tool your Palm will be able to compute more than 1000 NPS. You can
expect a 100 points elo increase at least.
I have heard that you can overclock the Visor Prism up to 45MHz without any wait
state (and activate other optimizations as well).

Without restarting? What do you mean?
Normally when you come back to Chess Tiger the last position and game is
automatically restored. Do you mean it does not work on your Palm???

Well... It's a tiger!

Chess Tiger for Palm beats ChessGenius for Palm at any time control, at least in
the tests I have done.
