One thing I like about my Treo 700w is the physical keyboard. I haven't done
it often, but I have used Pocket PuTTy to SSH to some hosts. Here's an
iPhone/iPod app to do something similar. Cool-ish.

hones>  VNC Lite, iPhone and iPod touch users already have a tool for
connecting remotely to their desktops, but what about those who like to get
things done over a command line? Free iPhone app TouchTerm provides
SSH-encrypted terminal access to any Linux, OS X, or even Windows system
running a server, making mobile rebooting or service starting over Wi-Fi or
EDGE/3G connections possible. The app supports landscape mode, a must for
serious two-thumb typing, can save connections for easy access. The $11.99
pro version adds advanced gesture and copy/paste support, amongst other
features <http://lifehacker.com/%3ca%20href=> , but the basic free edition
can get the job done. TouchTerm is a free download for iPhones and iPod
touch models running the 2.0 firmware only.
