Joseph,

You can do a rough estimate of the Pocket PC Strength by subtracting 50 to 75
elo points for every halving of clock speed. Assuming that the top PC programs
are 2700 on a machine running at 3000 Mhz then there would be a decrease of 200
to 300 points in performance on the Pocket PCs x-scale processor running at 300
to 400 Mhz. ie 2x2x2=8  ; -75 points change for every halving.

IOW the little wonders should be doing 2400 to 2500 level chess.  Mr. Byrne has
been doing a study of this in his many posts at this site.

Amazing,

TJF
