Supposedly has Online searchable database, but I do not use the >Axim for getting online. I don't recall seeing any significant number of games played BETWEEN the top programs on the PocketPC. I guess it's difficult because the moves must be made manually and most people don't have 2 PPCs? Couldn't somebody devise a way to have two PPC programs play each other without human intervention for each move? Either on 2 separate units or one 1 unit? (Plugged into AC, battery drainage shouldn't be a problem.) Then we could get a better idea of exactly how Genius 1.5, Ruffian, and PF2 compare on current PPC hardware.
