GodEater:
Although if you *have* to use a web client (like some of us behind nasty restrictive firewalls), then www.mibbit.com is way better than the CGI::IRC thing we use as our direct link on the site.

The downside of it is you have to know a bit more about IRC to connect to the rockbox channel, since it doesn't automatically log you in there.

MarcGuay:
Excellent, Mibbit is a definite improvement.  I tried mIRC before and it was brutally slow as well, maybe I just chose the wrong client from the pile.  Anyway, thanks a lot, maybe I'll stick my head in there more often.

GodEater:
Out of interest, you said you found IRC "slow" - I'm curious to know "when compared with what?"

MarcGuay:
Compared to a speed I find tolerable, I guess, which is based on the speed I'm used to when dealing with an up-to-date computer.  It was taking about 2 or 3 minutes just to log in, at which point I'd often get booted by a random error.  And then the time between sending a message and it actually appearing in the channel would deter me even more.

AlexP:
Yeah, that's just the cgi client.  Mibbit is better, but a proper client (i.e. not in a browser) is instant (except for if you have network troubles of course :))
