Is there any service that through a login and a program locally installed on my PC but remotely accessible by the 770 would tell me the PC's IP?
So that I could connect to TVersity also from remote using the router's port forwarding and not only through the WLAN. That's the only point in which I could find TVersity lacks in respect to Orb.
Not sure if this answers your question but I have been keeping an eye on Hamachi as it was proposed by TVersity, is platform independent and enables secure VPN style connections between PC's and devices connecting across the Internet. (I believe it can resolve any IP address changes of the various connected PC and devices)

There is already a port of Hamachi available for the Nokia 770 but I as it requires root access I have not fully installed and tested with TVersity and Hamachi running on my winXP PC etc.
