The latter means that even when you get disconnected, the client will automatically try to reconnect you. Other settings include the ability to save chat logs, the choice to disable the iPhone's autolock feature (meaning it'll prevent the phone from going to sleep), plus the choice to stay constantly connected. Rooms also has a nice console view that lets you see the connection status. Then you can decide if you want to always connect to the server, plus you can set up default rooms (or channels) to join upon connecting. When you first start Rooms up, you'll be prompted to add a new server, a port number, as well as a desired nickname, which is typical with most IRC clients. There are hundreds of IRC servers located around the world, and is probably one of the oldest forms of Internet chat rooms. For the uninitiated, IRC stands for Internet Relay Chat, and involves real-time Internet communication on chat rooms called channels. That said, it has quite a number of bugs, probably because it's only version 0.5. It's pretty stripped down as far as IRC clients go, but for simple chatting, it works really well. Rooms is, so far anyway, the first and only IRC client for the iPhone.
