Shredder Chess for the iPad
I was a bit sceptical about the strength of these new chess programs for the iPad, but now I see one that's familiar. And this one's definitely got some serious horsepower.
Shredder for the iPad cant import pgn files, and the graphics show in your picture are really bad. Perhaps there is other piece set with the standard nice crisp 2-d piece set graphics. But with no serious database functions is this is sadly not for the serious chess player
I use it with standard 2D pieces. An opening database is implemented, one for endgames via the net. And I must say it is a nice thing to move the pieces with the fingers...
