J That's a bummer about being locked into those choices. I did use SSH on the pearl. Had to create a lot of customized entries in the dictionary for the cmds, but it wasn't a big deal. I think a Full QWERTY is better for that type of App, but that's just me. You're choices being limited, are all very different. I would think about what type of connectivity you have to your office. BES, EAS? And that might help you make your decision. Both the Jack and the iPhone are 3G. That too me, would be an important factor. Thanks, - JB From: Joseph L.

So my only options are the listed ones, sigh... I am expected to spend hours of my own fuggin time on a pc, but my company can't just *buy* me a phone that allows me to work conveniently. Don't even get me started L So as lame as a Pearl is, you ssh'ed on it (I might be stuck with that one)? I might go for the normal iPhone 3G if I can, at least its moderately cool. jlc From: Barsodi.John [mailto:john.bars...@igt.com] Sent: Wednesday, July 08, 2009 10:23 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Phones I picked up the Pearl the day it dropped on Tmobile in 2006, ran that phone into the ground until I upgraded this past November to a Storm and Bold. Seeing that you have the iPhone, why is the Bold not an option? If you can swing it, get the Bold. I've used a few ssh clients on the BB platform and they are fine. There are free ones and paid for ones. I liked a paid for version of Rove's SSH client - not sure if they sell just the SSH client by itself anymore. Thanks, - JB From: Joseph L.

I need an ssh client and PIX vpn access, the only options I have are a Samsung Jack, Blackberry Pearl, or iPhone 3G (not the new one). Anyone got any experiences with these and can suggest caveats? Although I have used an iPhone before, I haven't used an ssh client on one, how shitty would that be?
