An iPhone with a bigger screen, which makes it not such a nice  
phone.  I want something with enough screen real estate I can log  
into one or more servers remotely with ssh and get real work done  
while I am out and about.  That is my biggest remote need.  That and  
email which the iPhone probably does well.

I wonder if existing BT keyboards will work with it.  Probably  
so :-)  The Nokia one is nice -- folds up small -- and it will work  
with my G5...
