That's a very good way to confuse everybody.
It sounds unimportant at first, but I know it is. Some people for example do not
make the connection between "Chess Tiger" and "Gambit Tiger". They have seen
both names in the SSDF list, but do not realize that both programs are connected
in some way.
I know I'm responsible for this name confusion, but I'm trying to correct this.
And anyway, Chess Tiger for Palm is exactly what the name says: the Chess Tiger
engine running on the Palm platform.
If you want an abbreviation, I think "CT Palm" or even "CTP" is better.

PS: Another funny thing about brand names: most american people that have been
asked answered that Nokia is an asian brand name. :)
Oops... You too believed it was from China?
It's from Finland...
