hehe I use a Gameboy Advance with Chessmaster 
unfortunately you can
only save one game at a time, but its small, has a great screen, and
great battery life.

Does the Gameboy have any type of computer interface capabilities? Can you
cable hookup the GB to a computer and save games that way? Just curious as
I been thinking about getting a Gameboy Advance just for Chessmaster.
thanks

Not that I have found.... but then again I haven't looked. The SP is
a perfect size to fit in my jacket pocket and a pretty reasonable price,
thats why I got one... great for a quick game
