I am already working on the ARM-native version.
The Tiger engine in the PalmOS version is exactly the same engine as the PC
version. So it already has the ability to compute the M best moves.
It's just the the GUI does not currently take advantage of this possibility. Too
bad, but it is not the most demanded feature either.
So I have plan to add this feature, but it is not my priority. I think you will
agree that a native-ARM version is more important.
