In an effort to round out the suite of internet applications available for the Newton line of handheld computers and learn about the TCP/IP stack for Newton, Tactile Systems wrote an Internet Relay Chat (IRC) client called ChatBuddy. ChatBuddy brings IRC into the palm of your hand. No more will travel plans interrupt your ability to get on-line and meet with your friends or associates. Full support of multiple server/multiple channel IRC means you'll be able to get the most out of your time on-line, saving you connection charges. Password protected parental control options inside ChatBuddy allow parents and teachers to encourage their children and students to explore topics with others from all over the country, or even the world. Variable screen size control means it will work comfortably on any Newton device on the market, from the smaller screened MessagePad 130 to the larger eMate and MessagePad 2000. Support of Direct Client Connection (DCC) sending means you can even exchange information with other Newton users on-line. Draw a sketch on your Newton and instantly send it through the chat to your business partner for her approval or review.
