I need a cell phone that will help me keep an eye on my servers and services when I am away from my computer/desk/workplace.

Which smart phone would you recommend for sysadmins?

  • An SSH client is a must.
  • I haven't used an iPhone, but I guess having a keyboard would be better.

Currently I'm looking at this alternatives:

  • iPhone would be the "default" smartphone.
  • Nokia E71 has got good recommendations, including from Joel Spolky's.
  • The Android platform looks good, but I'm not sure the few models (HTC G1 / HTC Magic / HTC Dream) are mature enough.
  • I'm not sure about Blackberry.
  • WinCE / Windows Mobile phones?
  • Any Nokia phone better than an E71?

Which choice did you make? What would you recommend?
