-DSHobro is a homebrew that lets you surf the web on your DS. It is based on a PC application that parses web pages, and sends the result to the DS. Version 0.1 alpha was released long ago, in april 07, but was just a tiny demo of the possibilities offered by the PC/DS mechanism. DSHobro 0.4 now takes full advantage of this mechanism and allows you to really surf the web, actually read text and view images (text is clear enough to be read) and so on.

-Some of the usual navigation possibilities are available such as the "back"/"forward"/"refresh"(...) buttons. Also, the server application supports multiple simultaneous connections, allowing for several people to use DSHobro at the same time, with only one instance of the program.
 You may also use DSHobro from a remote location: if you run the server on your own PC, you can surf the web with your DS from any wifi access point.

 #run "DSHobro04.nds" on your DS. Press A if your DS and your PC are on the same network (at home, for example), or press B if you are using your DS from a remote access point. In this last case, you will need to check the "Enable remote access" option during step 1, and enter the key that is given to you. Press X if you prefer to configure your network settings manually.
-Note: DSHobro does NOT require DLDI patching.Just start the app, click a button, start DSHobro on your DS and you're set! The automatic configuration tool will take care of everything.

 These features are similar to a regular web browser:
+:Back - go back (display previous page)
+:Forward - go forward (display next page)
+:Refresh - refreshes page
+:Text - opens the text bar and lets you write text with the virtual keyboard. If you enter :erase and send it to your PC, the text field you are currently writing text to will be cleared.
+:Home - goes to homepage, aka. www.google.com
-Back - go back (display previous page)
+Also, if you press Start, the PC won't actually redownload the web page, but only send the current page again to the DS. It may prove useful when you click somewhere on the page and it doesn't load a new page (ie. opening a frame, a menu, ajax...)
