Subject: Chess Tiger for Palm (Christophe?)

I have several questions and suggestions about Chess Tiger for Palm, which I
have recently purchased.

1. How are the trainer levels implemented? Since they have the same strength
regardless of the speed of the processor, and from what I can see during search,
I guess that they are fixed depth levels. Level 7 searches to ply 7, it seems.
But it still sometimes makes blunders that I wouldn't think a program searching
to ply 7 would make. So there is something weakening it even more?

2. How correct are the appx. ratings of the trainer levels on the homepage?

3. Isn't there a way to give my name once and for all so I won't have to type it
everytime I save a game?

4. Where can I find the speed index of some selected processors for comarison?
My speed index on my Tungsten-T is 0.78. Is that high?

5. Is it possible to compile a native ARM version for Tungsten-T with Palm OS5,
and wouldn't it be much faster?

6. How come two people owning Chess Tiger for Palm can't play against eachother
via IR or BlueTooth etc. ?
