Re: Chess for Android: Epic Electronic Chessboard Show-down
Starting with v6.8, Chess for Android now also supports the Chessup electronic chessboard. Note that the protocol in this board differs from the typical protocol in the sense that most work is already done on the board itself (display moves, check valid moves, etc.). So, this was actually a bit more work than for the other boards, since I had to workaround the typical "phone drives it all" behavior. But it is working now, with some minor things still to be improved.
