Being at Daily Lit now, maybe it's time for a fancy MobIle.

Key uses: EMail, Instant Messaging, and SSH. Why: (a) test our service, (b) have Always On ability to respond to problems, when WiFi isn't handy.

Probably stick with VeriZon, though might need to reconsider that. (And if I do, does that lead me to IPhone?)

Or maybe I just stick with a MID? I really want to run a local Private Wiki.

The [LG] [EnV] seems promising though some are not happy. And I don't see any reference to SSH support. And Web Browser is as lame as almost all the non-IPhone choices.

NokIa phones with real Key Board-s (handled by VeriZon) include N95 and E90. They have WiFi.

• N95 runs JaiKu, though all online stuff seems to suck [Battery Life]. It definitely runs SSH.

• E90 is a very high-end machine.

• I don't know what the NokIa website is thinking, but VeriZon doesn't carry those phones!

March update: we'll switch to ATT for official IPhone for her. z2008-03-06- Iphone Worldphone - but not sure what I should do. Might just get free phone for now, wait for GPhone...
