I snipped this from a google search.

Gaming tech company Saitek plans to unveil a product called Cosmic later this
year. It's a dedicated chess computer that resembles a Palm Pilot, both in its
size and shape and in its touch-pad screen. The game plays an 1800-rated game ­
it's no Kasparov, but that's enough to beat 89% of us (according to the U.S.
Chess Federation) ­ and includes many features, such as problem solving (up to
eight moves ahead), a positional evaluation tool and various level settings. Its
expected retail cost will be $80 (subject to change).
