As for software...

FTP - Transmit

IRC - X-Chat Aqua or Snak

Chat - iChat AV, Proteus, Fire, or Adium (2 preferrably)

Check out the newbie guide here. It is a sticky at the top of this forum. There are many useful links there. You will definitely want to check out sidetrack which makes the very right side of your track-pad a scroll-pad. The #1 thing I use ALL the time on my pbook.
