How Many Ways Can You Play Solitaire?
If you like to play solitaire on your Pocket PC, you're probably already aware that there is more than one version of the game. What you may not know is that you can get 40 different versions of the game in a single application: Patiences Gold.
I'm not going to list all 40 versions, but this update to Patiences Gold includes seven new ones, including Alhambra, Granada, Reserves, Interchange, Alternations, Unlimited and Breakwater. The game also has some other nifty features, like the ability to use customized decks and backgrounds, unlimited undos (for you cheaters out there like me) and autosaving.
Maybe the best feature of Patiences Gold is its price. You can download a free 15-day demo or the full version for only $7.50 from Handango. I'm no math wiz, but at about $0.19 per game, that sounds like a pretty good "deal" [get it?].

Sorry about the bad pun. I guess I should have had a "heart" and not "clubbed" you with it just to try to feel like a "king" of puns. So, please don't "deck" me, just try to "deal" with my bad jokes.

Wow I never knew you could write puns. You must be a 'Jack' of all trades.

Enough with the puns. I'm going to put this thread down the drain with a 'Straight Flush'. Now we all can 'Shuffle' ourselves back on-topic.

I think it's obvious who's playing with a full deck here. :mrgreen:
Hint: Not me.

Hmmm...
Janak "raised" a good point, we may have to put this thread on permanent "hold"... :wink:
