or P-Jongg (formerly known as PalmJongg) is available for $12 and has a trial version. Works nicely on all Palms including hi-res on the HandEra 330.

P-Jongg works fine on any Palm. Pocket Mahjongg works on a hi-res Clie only.

I know P-Jongg works on any Palm, but like i said P-Jong is HIRES ONLY for HandEra 330, so it doesn't help for us Clie users. Pocket Mahjongg however is HIRES For the Clie, and is made only for the Clie's hires screen.

It's more beautiful than P-Jongg too :)

I think you mean "15 day trial" not 15 free trial

For those of you who wandered here w/o a hi-res Clie', other Mahjong (the tile matching kind, not the traditional Poker-like version) choices include one made by Astraware, http://www.astraware.com/all/default/mahjongg

or Freejongg, which as its name suggests, is freeware

It's interesting to see Sony's method of "overtaking" the handheld market: producing a new device every two months. I guess it's a winning strategy if you have the resources to change production facilities that easily.

I, by the way, still use a 710C and I'm loving it.

This hires version unfortunately, the boards are COMPLETELY RANDOM... so not all boards are solvable, so it's a little frustrating.

I like the other Mahjongg games where there's a couple thousand preconfigured boards and every single board is solvable.

Of course, you don't need to preconfigure the boards, as long as the algorithm for the board layout places each pair in a legal position to start with. Shouldn't be too hard to develop that way.

This game is really well done. This is the kind of thing I thought I'd see a lot more of when I got my clie two months ago. :( Where are more awesome games like this?

I hope Palm OS 5 is 320x320.

I was actually hoping they'd mostly be 480x640 with virtual graffiti and support for other varying resolutions as well.
