Quite right James. As a transatlantic Iphone user I connect to a variety of
IRC servers set up to specifically handle Vocaltec's program's traffic.

Initially it used normal IRC servers, but very soon after was banned from 
almost all IRC sites; hence the special purpose servers.

Once the connection is made, the data stream goes straight from caller to 
caller.

It works fine.
