Being something of a keen (though not that good) player, I couldn't resist loading up both ZingMagic's Backgammon and Odesys Backgammon on the Nokia E90 and N95. Both played a strong game, but one of them was quirky and the other took the gaming experience to a whole different level...

Nice reviews! :-)

What's the in-game chat like? Is it set phrases or can you actually write text?

Steve, you didnt mention how well the java game displays on the E90?

Yes, you can write anything you like, it's real chat.

And the Java version just plays in a hard-coded window in the centre of the E90's screen, so I tended to play it in 'closed' mode.

"Yes, you can write anything you like, it's real chat."

That must work pretty well with the E90's keyboard...
