Portable VNC Beta 1

- NHD, member of XBox coding group Team XOS, has released a beta version of PVNC (Portable VNC, previously PSPVNC.) As with most early releases, it is a little slow and the on-screen keyboard seems to be broken, but improvements are being worked on.
- This software is based on the palmVNC source, and using it allows you to control your computer using the d-pad as the mouse and an on-screen keyboard for text input, all via WiFi!
- The author says he made PVNC "to work with my Xbox Dashboard/OS and use the PSP as a controller for the built in emulators and games."
- VNC (Virtual Network Computing), as stated on their website, is "a remote display system which allows you to view a computing 'desktop' environment not only on the machine where it is running, but from anywhere on the Internet and from a wide variety of machine architectures."
