Last night, as we were checking out the new version of Installer.app, we stumbled upon two new packages.
One of them was an iRC client called BitchX. We haven't iRC'd for years so we decided to install it and try it out... just to see how far along they were on the development of the application. Needless to say, we were very impressed with what we found. BitchX is a really nice iRC client for the iPhone that actually works! We were in #iphone for just a bit. We're pretty sure that diehard iRC folks will love this app, but we couldn't get into typing all those "/" commands on the keyboard.
Then we also found a very early beta of an AIM client. We installed and tried it out but unfortunately for us, it didn't work at all. We've read and seen reports elsewhere that show the client working. While we could log in, we couldn't bring up a buddylist and thats where the fun ended. Hopefully the developer makes progress and we can give it another spin in a few days.
All of this application goodness can be found by installing the Installer.app on your iPhone. C'mon... it's easy! You can read about it here.
