The iOrbiter is a new style of web orbiter, that is using the iui CSS lib to provide an iPhone/iPod Touch kind of look.

How to install

The iOrbiter is only available via subversion at the moment. To get it

sudo apt-get install subversion
cd /var/www
sudo svn checkout http://svn.linuxmce.org/svn/people/posde/iOrbiter /var/www/iOrbiter

From your iPhone/iPod Touch or other fairly recent web browsing device you can now connect to http://dcerouter/iOrbiter/iOrbiter.php
