Pocket Fritz 2 will work fine.  So will Genius 1.5 in Pocket Grandmaster 2.1 for
about half the money.  Pocket Fritz 1 (the original) will NOT work in the
current Dell Axim shipping with WM 2003.

IMO, the engines are almost equal (Genius 1.5/PGM Ruffian/PF2) on a Dell Axim
Wm2003. (thus far).  For variety of play  get at least PGM and CG - 4 engines
for ~$50.  PF2 is ~ Shredder 7, which is no slouch either, but is a little more
dear @ ~$50.  Supposedly has Online searchable database, but I do not use the
Axim for getting online.
