Thanks! I'm very glad you love the Palm version. Personally I had great pleasure
working on it, and I'm still working on it an improving it.
And as the engine is exactly the same as the PC version, you can be assured that
it will keep on getting better and better update after update!

Yes, Chess Tiger provides a feature for this. Open the menu, go to "Options",
and "Prefs" (there is also an icon to go directly to the "Prefs" in most views).
In the "Prefs" you can give a "specific auto off time". I advice you to check
this box and give an auto off time of 10 minutes.

Yes, by overclocking your Visor you have made Chess Tiger 100 elo points
stronger!
