5.0 out of 5 stars A lot of fun to use with lots of opts. for the chess lover
This little guy is great for playing chess. It's about the size of a PDA and has a strong durable feel to it. The chess pieces are fairly easy to decipher although sometimes I get confused as which pieces belong to which color (the only indicator is a little black or empty square in the middle of the piece). The touch screen is very easy to use and you don't have to press...

3.0 out of 5 stars Good idea but needs a better screen...
This is a reasonably powerful chess computer that will certainly give the average chess player a run for his money. Unfortunately, the screen is very difficult to see. You have to hold it just right and really look at the pieces carefully to make them out.

This little guy is great for playing chess. It's about the size of a PDA and has a strong durable feel to it. The chess pieces are fairly easy to decipher although sometimes I get confused as which pieces belong to which color (the only indicator is a little black or empty square in the middle of the piece). The touch screen is very easy to use and you don't have to press hard to move pieces around. It has a lot of options and features with 100 levels of intelligence. As far as I can tell, no other lcd touch screen chess game comes close to the quality of this one. The price of it should be an indicator of this. If you are curious, the Sharper Image sells this under their own name and for[] more! Get it here and save yourself some money. It's a great deal for what it offers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Man's best friend!!!!!, June 4, 2003
= Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars  = Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars  = Educational:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This chess computer is awesome. I spend a lot of time at sea and this chess computer helps me pass the time. It fits in your pocket too. At first I found it hard to see the DIFFERENCE in the pieces but that wore off quickly. Great buy.

Its very difficult to see the chess pieces on the LCD screen. There is lot of reflection and glare. I would not recommend it.
