An iPhone Hacker has managed to port a functioning P2P client to the iPhone based on a popular Bitorrent client for Macs. According to Gizmodo, this is presently a command line client and the application will most likely drain your battery.

Test on the P2P client have been performed and its a promising software from the looks of it once development progresses. Here’s something that you should know first if you plan to use to download torrent files:

• This is a command line client, although someone will probably make a GUI version in the future.
• EDGE and P2P don’t mix! Use WiFi instead if you want to download at a decent speed.
• An iPhone battery drainer. Torrenting will drain your battery extremely rapidly.
• As of the moment, there’s no easy to install then follow for further instructions package available.

A preliminary software, but it is a first and will likely see improvements in the future.
