this is only very tangentially related, but i recall a short story from my childhood published in one of chernev's books, called something like 'three sailors', set in maybe the 19th century...they had found some small pocketsized device that could play chess. basically as i recall they'd go to pubs etc, input the moves in the device, play what it recommended, & crush everyone. too bad they didn't have wifi or 3G back then, they would've been really floored with that iphone.
