I think they call it waterboarding. Oh, you mean as in wifi - the electric cattle prods are close.
Zing! Surfing in Guantanamo = waterboarding. You are one quick mofo, FF2

Made my day!

Thanks - sometimes the 60+ year old gray matter still matters. But, back on topic, I've never really gotten into Chess.

As one 60 year old to another, sometimes the gray matter gets a bit sluggish. Like with chess. I actually do play Scrabble on my Kindle, if I am waiting for an appointment and can't get into a book. But chess... I'm not so sure. I always enjoyed playing with my son, and enjoyed it as a social thing. I haven't yet played a single game on the Kindle, yet I may, as you suggest, have to suffer the dire consequences of having acquired it through skulduggery. I'm like a child with a toy -- can't resist playing with my Kindle, from all of the hacks to Duokan, etc. That, and I have a pretty large library of great literature, from Shakespeare to Hilary Mantel. I hope I'll be sitting on the porch reading an ereader (certainly not this one!) at 90! And I hope you are, too, old man.

Hi!

My chess program (pbchess) is ready to be ported to Kindle.
https://sourceforge.net/projects/pbchess/

PocketBook forum thread:
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=112125

It has several strong chess engines and works well even on PocketBook 301+ (400Mhz CPU, 64Mb RAM). I want to ask kindle owners:
1. Are you interested in to have pbchess on kindle?
2. Are you ready to install jailbreak to use pbchess on kindle?

I can make a demo version for Windows/Linux desktop.
