ChessBase is currently testing new software that will give you direct access to the Playchess.com server on your cellphone. You can log in, watch games, follow broadcasts, even play against other visitors. This is possible using our client software Fritz Mobile, which is currently in the test phase.
   
What is required on your cel phone?
First of all you need to make sure you are using a GRPS capable cell phone, and that the GPRS service with your provider is properly configured.
Further your cellphone needs to have Java capability. Specifically it requires MIDP 2.0 (the Mobile Information Device Profile provided by Sun Microsystems for the use of Java on devices such as cell phones and PDAs) or CLDC 1.0 (Connected Limited Device Configuration, a Java application targeted at pagers and mobile phones).
Â
You probably do not have to worry about either of the above requirements, since all modern cellphones have GPRS and Java capability enabled. If you are not sure about it, read the manual of your cell phone or contact your provider. Alternatively you can simply try following our instructions and install Mobile Fritz. If it works, you know your cellphone has met all the requirements.
