[Cialug]ssh for cell phones

[Josh More]

I have both pssh ( http://www.sealiesoftware.com/pssh/ ) and tussh (
http://www.tussh.com/ ) installed on my Treo. They are OK, but not
stellar.  I can send odd characters, so vi works, as does tab
completion.  However, it's slow, high latency, and do not expect line
drawing characters to work.

It is, however, great to be able to fix an emergency while you're
hiking in the mountains of Arizona.

I had an ssh client on my Treo - I found it to be tedious even with a
qwerty keypad. Josh or Ken could probably give better insight on that
-
I haven't been using my Treo for a while. BTW - anyone want to buy an
old Treo 600 (GSM - T-mobile)?

There was a /. article recently about typos on the iPhone - they
claimed
the iPhone had a significantly higher incidence of typos than other
smartphones with actual keypads.
