Hi.
Not for your Siemens but,
I guess the program you call Chess v1.00f is the one from Purple software. This
is the build in chessprogram for Sony-Ericsson P800 (and probably P900) in a
slightly different package. It have 6 levels and the move are made by clicking
on the from and to square direct on the screen or by draging.
Maybe it is dumbed down a bit too, at least it blunder even on the highest
level.

Then you have EChess (Winboard + crafty) found at http://www.yipton.net/ .
This is the nicest looking program for SE P800/P900. As you see on the pictures
it have very clear pieces/board.
