The speed difference between the Visor and the PIII-550 is more than 300, even
if you have overcloked the Palm.
You can directly compare the NPS figures of Chess Tiger 14.0 for PC and Chess
Tiger 14.1 for Palm, because they are actually the same program (or almost).
I'm extremely surprised that my creature managed to survive more than 30 moves,
given a 300 times speed handicap.
Looking at the first game carefully, it looks like Shredder was out of book with
a score of +1.03. The score advantage quickly went up to +2.28.
But the incredible thing is that a few moves later Tiger managed to come back,
with a handicap of only -0.53 (move 21).
At move 35 Shredder evaluated an advantage for itself of only +0.45.
The same thing happened in game 2, Shredder needing 30 moves to get a clear
advantage.
I don't expect Tiger to win a single game out of 20 with such a hardware
disadvantage, but not being killed in a few moves is really surprising.
