Coming to a handheld near you

A new ad-supported cell phone chess game from Cellufun lets aspiring grandmasters work on their ratings while waiting for the bus.

But this is no game; this is a sport - that is, it allows users to play in real-time.

The WAP-based chess app matches players' skill levels with formidable opponents, thanks to Cellufun's 160-country entertainment community, according to a press release.

The free, multiplayer chess game is supported on some 600 handsets, including the new iPhone.
