New Phone, Tough Choices (ssh)
Please Login to Remove!
Hello everyone,
I am new to the blackberry forums, so first - hello. I am by trade a linux administrator, and I am looking for my first phone to help me better accomplish that position. I did once own a first-gen sidekick, but the speeds were far too slow to make the SSH client useful. I will be switching to Verizon soon, to give you an idea of what I've got available to me.
So I guess I'm looking for input, from you - the knowledgable. I am most attracted to the Blackberry - in this case, I'm eyeing the 8330, but I'd like to hear your recommendations. Here are my concerns:
Primary: EVDO, Good SSH Client, QWERTY Keyboard
Secondary: Email (POP/IMAP), IMs (AIM/MSN/YIM/ICQ/GTalk preferably), Call Quality
Tertiary: Third Party Support, Homebrew, Perl Interpreter (OK, the last one would just be a really nice added bonus)
I would LOVE to have a full 80x24 SSH client. Am I looking in the right place? Anyone have any recommendations on a particular model of Blackberry, or perhaps even something out of left field?
Thanks in Advance
