I have a full keyboard from Targus for my Ipaq. Is the same size as the
Ipaq when it is folded. Very cool. Most of my remote stuff is done with
the TSAC on the web. If I can get to phone line most times I can just as
easily get to a pc. Then there is the 100 minutes a day with the cell
phone. If I cannot get a computer I call someone who can and walk them
through it. Laptop stays at home next to the couch for email.

Hi,
Like many of you I have a pager attached to my person 24/7, and the buck
stops with me when it comes to a Server problem. I normally lug around a
Notebook which I can get online from pretty much anywhere I happen to
be.
I've never looked into PDAs in the past, but know they've come on leaps
and bounds recently. I have seen that I can get both a (presumably thin)
Terminal Services client, and also a SSH client to run under Windows CE
/ Pocket PC, and connect onto the 'net via a Cell Phone at an astounding
28.8k! :) I know typing etc is still pretty terrible on those things,
but I'm after a workable solution, not a perfect one!
Do any of you currently use anything like this for remote access from
the pub/mall/car/sports stadium? Basically I am looking for a
'pocketable' rather than 'portable' solution which would let me stop /
restart services, and if necessary restart my W2K servers.
Any input appreciated as always.
TIA & Regards,
Rupert
