ConnectBot

How many times have you wanted to SSH from the road? There are a number of terminal emulators appearing that just pop up a telnet window so that you can open up a shell on your own machine, but if you want to connect remotely it's easier to use a dedicated SSH tool like ConnectBot. It will juggle multiple connections and color code the text just like a real shell. Just read the instructions about control keys and the Escape key before trying to use a tool like vi. Price: Free.
