Ask HN: Anyone have an iPad SSH client suggestion?

5 points by motherwell ↗ HN
I know I'll need one one day, and the reviews on the App store are less than awe inspiring.

Has anyone used one, and have suggestions / complaints / apps to avoid or buy? Not worried about price, as I know I'll need one at some point, and when I do, I'll be risking more than the cost of an SSH app.

I've used iSSH for a couple of years on my iPhone 3G and couldn't be happier.

I tried a few, and iSSH is the only one still remaining on my iPad.

Ditto. I have tried four or five and iSSH seems the best (but substantially better on the iPad then on the iPhone)

I can echo this also; though for more than the tiniest amount of command line typing, I set the iPad aside and pick up a notebook/network/whatever.

Problem is, I'll be out, say at movie, something goes wrong, I get a frantic call asking what is up, have to taxi home to sort it out. So an iPad/iPhone app would REALLY help there.
