It's nice to hear that others are still finding the sshd stuff useful. I still use it for copying files to and from the device. I may use the ssh shell if the daemon is already running and I just need to do something quickly. Otherwise, I've been using the utelnetd daemon for login sessions because it has a much better behaved terminal. You get a prompt, command completion, history and editing, and even vi works nicely. It's much better if you need to do complicated things in the shell. At least that's true on my 902; I don't know if they've fixed the permissions on /dev/ptmx and added /dev/pts to /etc/fstab on the newest devices or not.
