I also have a Novag Saphire with an H8 26.6 Mhz and I have done several tests
against Chess Tiger for Palm with my visor running at 50 Mhz they are almost
qual in strength except that Chess Tiger has won about 4.5 more games than Novag
at G/60 total games 30. My perception is that since Chess Tiger is rated 2101
Novag should be around 2060 at least.
