Have you tried tChess Pro and Shredder on the iPad. Brilliant - I use Fritz Chess on my iPhone and will be getting a 3G version of the iPad when they are released. I can use Fritz Chess to access the online Chessbase, and that's excellent.
Yeah the tChess is pretty good also.
I have bought an iPad and it does look like it works well. Now you guys have to encode the videos in m4v and get rid of flash. This will let the iPad/iPhone play the videos right from the web browser.
How does one play live chess on the iPad? I cannot make the pieces move. I suppose this is due to the live chess using some standard that iPad doesn't support?
I was in the Apple store several days ago, and they let me play with one that was hooked up to the internet. I got chess.com just fine, put in my password, and was able to see my games and make a move just by touching the chess piece where it was and then touching the place I wanted it to go.
I am getting the one with 3G that will be connected to AT&T. For $30 a month you have unlimited access. But for $15 a month you have just about all the time you will need.
It is beautiful. For $7.99 you can get Schredder chess and other applications.
Mine should be here on the 30th.
As far as videos, I'm not sure.

Is anyone excited to see cool chess applications on the iPad? I would love to see a chess.com app for it where you can play live chess. Also maybe some interactive chess books.
