After translating the official theme creator to German language, homebrew developer Lektor came up with a new mIRC script for the Playstation Portable. Even though this is the first time we're going to cover this, the release has just brought the program up to version 2.0.

Called mIRC-PSP, Lektor said that the script comes with an RSS feed for some of the most known websites dedicated to the Sony handheld like QJ.NET's PSPUpdates. Aside from that, the script also provides users with applications like Query Blocker and a German version of the said theme creator.

Aside from the already mentioned, links to several PSP-dedicated IRC channels were also provided. mIRC-PSP v2.0 comes with an Info.txt file containing useful details about the program. It was written in German so for our English readers, take the time to translate it to avoid causing problems to your Sony handheld.
