Pocket PC Thinker will be using 64MB for the hash table. A desktop PC will host timestamp through RemoteThinker. ThinkerAutoTalk will be on when not playing. If for some reason, the iPAQ becomes inoperable, the backup is the Dell Axim X30 PDA. It has the same Xscale processor, but Pocket PC Thinker will only have 32MB for the hash table. I will separately logon as guest to chat, as it is almost impossible to chat with a PDA.
