I beleive there is a way of running mIRC on an Android tablet which I will be trailing tonight.

You can run a Windows emulator on Android. However from what I can see Emulator does not really appear to be the correct word, more like VM.

So a good modern Android tablet will easily surpass the systems requirments to run winXP *emulator*. From there just install and run mIRC inside XP.

It's a bit of a fath but gives you mIRC access locally on your Android tablet.
