I hate to be negative, especially given how coveted CR-48s are/were, but after about a week of getting mine I just had to put Ubuntu on it. Yeah, I spend 70% of my time in the browser, but I just can't give up that other 30% (dev stuff). It's not really worth having a laptop for me without a decent text editor/full ssh capabilities. It might serve the masses well, but my point is if you're the type of person who would make your own you're probably better off not doing so.

What are your ssh complaints? I've been able to ssh into another computer and use vim and other cli tools without a problem, but I'm not an ssh power user by any stretch.

  Are you able to do this without Jailbreaking?

> without a decent text editor/full ssh capabilities. I routinely do dev work on my CR-48. While it may not be your preferred editor, vim provides syntax highlighting, code folding, shell access and multitudes of other options which can be fine tuned to precisely the user's needs. With the latest dev update I can specify which private key I want to use to connect to a given machine as well. They have turned on limited local filesystem access. However, this is the dev channel; I have no clue what's going on in beta right now.
