Also, while it would be theoretically possible to create a chess AI implementation that would always select the optimal move, this is effectively impossible due to the computing power it would take to simulate every possible game scenario. Remember, even chess programs on supercomputers lose to humans. Obviously, the Zune isn't a supercomputer.

AI can be implemented much more effectively for many other, less complicated games.
My BE-300 (166 MHz, 12 MB RAM) can easily run a chess program with decent AI. Would the Compact .NET Framework once again be the destroyer of dreams in this case? I have no idea how much slower the Compact .NET Framework is compared to pure native code.
