I would say that is not an ideal setup to test these programs.
Let them think for longer if you want to get a more accurate idea. At least game
in 10 or 20 minutes... Game in one hour would be more interesting.
Also, as Genius is already advantaged by the hardware, it does not seem
necessary to add permanent brain on top of this. By playing without permanent
brain you get a more realistic idea of what it will be when Tiger for Palm has
the permanent brain too.
Something else: I don't see your name in my customer list. So you must be using
the unregistered version, which plays very weak after move 22.
