I do the vast majority of my work with ssh and xterm, only using putty, gnome-terminal, etc. when testing terminal applications. FWIW, I just did some testing today with the iSSH App on an iPad, and it works reasonably well connecting to a variety of *nix servers. I do have clients connecting to FilePro applications using the PowerTerm program from Ericom, mostly because they want something that does a good SCO emulation as FilePro's support for xterm is somewhat poor (which I'm working on now fix the termcap :-).
