If you have an iPad, you should get it and try it (it's free). The interface is really nice. I played like 8 games over the weekend...

*obligatory rant about IGS ratings*: going 6-2 on KGS with no other recent games should raise your rating to the point where you're not sandbagging. Oh well, I guess I'll just have to play more...

Are you thinking about PandaTetsuki? It is almost 3 years on the iPhone and a year on the iPad since beta was available :)
There are also WBaduk and Tygem app in the AppStore, but client for IGS is most polished and more customizable.

About rank on the IGS (simplified): if you win you get 100 points, if you lose you get -100, and after about 1000 points you get promotion, so you need to have a more constant winning streak than on kgs to get promotion.

[Edit]Oh, just realized that you probably are more informed about IGS rank system than I am... sorry I just thought you are some newbie :)

I assume this is the app you are referring to? http://www.gentgo.be/tetsuki/ It looks positively sweet, and if I ever get an iPad this is the first thing I'd install.

Tetsuki has been developed by Kris Van Bael. He's a member of our local Go Club in Ghent, Belgium. I played with him a few times at the club, he's a really nice guy.

Yeah, Panda-tetsuki. I had tried something else a while ago which was much clunkier, that's why I was impressed.

Unfortunately it's not enough to keep me from making really dumb mistakes!

@lobotommy, thanks for the link, I've read it before but a refresher is not a bad idea if I'm going to play there more. :)
