a thumbs up just because you put the horse in its place. You made me smile. You must have done the same. You understand a lot of a person's character from these little things.
6:34 what mobile fon you use here? With which (older) smartphone does the "DGT Chess App" work? I want to use a separate (older used) smartphone with DGT Pegasus
DGT must provide firmware update to DGT Pegasus to improve move recognition. They should fix the SPECIFIC ORDER WHEN EXECUTING A PIECE CAPTURE, where you have to remove first the piece to be captured and replace it with the capturing piece. If you do the reverse where you first lift the capturing piece and remove the piece to be captured and replace it with the capturing piece then the board has high probability to run into problem of not accepting/recognizing the move. This is what I discovered with my DGT Pegasus. While in my DGT Centaur I have no issues regardless of which order the capture is executed. THE DGT PEGASUS SHOULD RELIABLY RECOGNIZE THE PIECE CAPTURE MOVE REGARDLESS OF THE ORDER IT WAS EXECUTED. I hope users of DGT Pegasus will give feedback to DGT.
Sorry for the late reply. To play against a computer I prefer the Centaur. But like the Pegasus for the online playing part. It has some problems with the software but updates are coming soon.
I indeed ordered it directly from DGT so I didn't have to wait for the resellers to get there stock delivered (and fed into there webshops, administration, etc). ;-)
@@PH2LB That's what I should have done. I do a lot of chessboard reviews. I waited too long for ChessHouse or these other sites to have Pegasus in stock. Now it probably won't get here before xmas :) Glad to know that someone has it in stock though. Thanks a lot!
Thanks for the review. Some unboxing advice: spend less time on the box and instruction book (2-5 seconds would be ideal) and more time playing the thing.
Honestly I think that's subjective. For myself it's better this way, I don't have a lot of room, and I tend to move my boards around a lot. Makes it easier to switch between black and white sides as well.
