Hi MaX, all the best to Italy :)

The latter isn't true. It was made by Markus Herven and me. BTW Markus  
was the author of bgmobile too. At some time we decided to cooperate.  
He wanted to close bgbmobile than but it's difficult to close an OS  
project. You see it at bgmobile2.

To my knowledge there is nothing comparable available out there.  All  
other I tried / had heard of had a great splash screen, some had  
really nice graphics, some where close to unusable and the playing  
strength was abysmal for all....

Different to the desktop version, the bgblitz2go is only a demo until  
licensed.

I havn't tried it on a Nokia smartphone (assuming Symbian), only on a  
Sony Ericcson with Symbian. It should work although Symbian seemed a  
little slow, but usable.
