I have to wonder how useful a terminal is with such a tiny keyboard, and mine is bigger than many on my Razr M > You might also want to put an alias in .ssh/config so e.g. ssh > h will ssh to home.

I've looked at ajaxterm when Linux Journal had an article on that. It seems promising. One problem I have more and more often with running nmh in a terminal is that people and systems frequently send messages encoded as html or in the Microsoft variant of quoted-printable. Neither of these is very usable in my terminal windows. I think that's likely because I haven't kept up on my MIME definitions in my MHN config file. Maybe I should unhook all my stale stuff and see what the latest version of nmh (which I'm running) can do with these formats.
