This MIDlet is deprecated, and replaced by Virca!

This program was written before any other irc apps were readily available. It was there to fill an immediate need of mine, and should not be concidered for end users. But hey, atleast it's open source!

A008Chat is a MIDlet for chatting on irc from your Accompli.

Get the jar file, the jad file, and the source code.
Or use OTA to vidarholen.net (Wrench tab, Java icon, Download button, OTA option, Enter URL, "vidarholen.net")

Meet the author live on irc, #java on dalnet. His nick is koala_man.

A51242: It's a MIDlet. You use it on your cellphone.

Q: I have a Nokia 3310, will it work?
A: No. You need an Accompli 008, or any phone with Motorolas LWT. Yes yes, 
   I know I suck and I should be beaten to death with a blunt soap cup, but 
   I was bored and thought it would be fun. It wasn't. 

Q: What can I do if I have a Nokia/Siemens/Whatever?
A: You could have read the first part of this page, that says this midlet is 
   for the specially interested and points everyone else to Virca.

Q: I have that, now what do I do?
A: You upload the jar to your phone (as a J2ME program of course).

Q: How?
A: By reading the manual.

Q: So while I read, the program uploads?
A: Sorry, no. This MIDlet doesn't work with IQs below room temperature.

Q: Which room?
A: Outhouse of an igloo.

Q: Why don't you give me proper installation instructions?
A: Because I don't want ignorant users touching my software,
as I'd do nothing but handle support mails all day, and IRC
is flooded with idiots already.

Q: But you have to be an expert to do this!!
A: No, you just need a brain more than or equal to that of a hamster.

Q: Screw your damn program.
A: Bah *waving paw dismissivly*

Q (from a user brighter than a singularity): How does this thing work?
A: It uses the phones support for TCP over IP on GPRS. Take a look at
the source.

Q: How do I upload this thing from !Windows?
A: OTA from vidarholen.net

Q: Whoa, how did that work?
A: Make a file in /mot_download like this.

Q: Hey, this app rocks! Damn yeah!
A: Liar. But thanks :)

Q: Now if only there was a way to read Dilbert strips on this phone.
A: *tries to hide clever smile*
