jmIRC - IRC from the mobile phone
Anyone ever used jmIRC ? It looks interesting, and since IRC itself is a very low bandwidth app, it would make much sense running native on the phone itself, rather than via a ssh session to a remote host.
I am looking for opinions...IF you have used this app. The plan is to run on my SE p900

IRC on a cell.
Well, I will have to say the main use I have for Irc on my cell phone is for lurking.
Also, if anyone develops an app, I need to be able to go up and look at text I missed, since the screen is so small. Currently, apps continue to add to the bottom, shoving what I am reading off the top. I would rather the buffer freeze the data coming in using say a "Backbuffer" then when I go down the text is clocked out at a reasonable speed to read.
Do you understand my problem?
I just downloaded jmirc and will be checking it out. I have used VIRCA with great success except where it lacks this feature.

back scroll or back buffer as you call it - seems to exist on jmirc, and its configurable. You can select how much backlog you want it to store.
