Stuart,

Don't want to burst your bubble but according to Handango there have 'only' been
80,000 downloads of Chess Tiger for the Palm.  I imagine no more than 5% of
these will register, and then there is the ~20% commission to Handango, which
would give Christophe ~$96,000.  Not bad - and he deserves every penny - but I
doubt he's a millionnaire.

On the other hand I have heard that he's sunning himself on a Carribean island -
so maybe he just lives the life of a millionnaire!!

Regards,

Steve
