I've tried both versions of Chess available from the above web site and none take advantage of the colour screen of the Series 7 let alone the bigger screen. Any other suggestions?

One of the existing Chess programs might be modified to use colour - try looking here:

But unless they were written to use the larger screen, I doubt they can easily be made to use it.

Alternatively a Java Chess program might be a solution, but (a) you need one compatible with the Psion's old JVM (before Java2 aka v1.2 I think), and then (b) you need someone to write a wrapper to run it (or adapt my existing publicly released wrapper, which unfortunately I don't really have the time to do).
