This is a session from iPhone. Using copy / paste here from OS 3.

The keys need some getting used to, but it's the same number of strokes as
using shift/sym keys on other keyboards. 

This IRC web interface is usable, but could be improved for less scrolling
to accommodate smaller device screens. 

Also it can keep and browse history but erroneously at the expence of
keys like "&" etc. It should have buttons instead.

Can the J interactive mode UI be implemented in a browser, say using
Ajax or something equivalent?

Yes, we were just talking about this on the list.  Navigate to

http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=jsoftware

which is an irc interface from the browser using javascript (probably
ajax).  Then use the evalbots as described in
"http://www.jsoftware.com/jwiki/Community/IRC#newbotdocs": enter the
line '):: a =: 5' then '):: 2 * a' to the channel to get the answer
(10).
