I am think about buying handheld chess game. Probably a touch screen LCD.

What is the best one out there? I am having a hard time deciding.

Thanks

Well, although expensive, I bought an iPAQ 2215 and Pocket Fritz 2. I have
used it almost every day for the past year and a half. It lacks a lot of
the features of the full version of Fritz or Chessbase, of course, but I
love it.

I think there is a less expensive model of iPaq, maybe the 1945 or something
like that.

Adrew, you may want to check this thread:

They are comparing different handheld options for playing chess,
including dedicated units versus pocket computers.
