These links are specifically for the US. You can just search the itunes app store for chess wise. It *should* be in the Canadian store, from what I've read on this list. Jim On Fri, Feb 04, 2011 at 04:45:19PM -0330, Doug Lawlor wrote: > I just tried accessing the below iTunes link and get a mes

Colin, Good points and the trackpad is of course a possibility. I imagine you could present the idea to him, but he may be more interested in the iOS platform at this point. You can access the support link from within the iTunes store. Scott On Feb 4, 2011, at 7:27 AM, Colin M wrote: > Hi

Hi, This is wonderful news. Kudos to Marcel for making the effort this accessibility required, and to Apple for allowing us this kind of accessibility in the first place. I just bought Chesswise Pro, and am very pleased with it so far. I'll be sure to provide feedback if I feel it's warranted

I've been playing with chesswise, and it looks awesome! I'll definately say so in the app store. My only question is about the excercises. The board is accessible, but the explaination (what to do) appears not to be. That is, I couldn't find any text on the screen. Has anyone played with this?
