Glad to see this mentioned as I cannot imagine a more suitable device for the purpose asked.

You don't realise how great it is to have what is effectively a linux computer, in your pocket at all times until you've owned one for a few months and realise how much you use it, or how much less you use the laptop/netbook

Add a little chroot envoronment (easychroot package and a largish image download later) and you have a complete development toochain for the device, on the device!

Obviously xterm and ssh (xterm being there by default and openssh (client and server) are avaiable in the repository, installable in a few taps to the screen.

As has been already mentioned it runs a proper X server so X forwarding over ssh is a piece of cake, and the high resolution screen means it's actually useful.

Did I mention it can play Quake3? :p

In a radio sense bandwidth is the frequency range between the lowest and highest frequency of electromagnetic radiation used to send the signal, eg in AM the bandwidth could be a few kilohertz wide, the data rate however, relating to the sample rate of the audio on a way, is related to the carrier frequency, not the bandwidth, eg 144MHz. A high rate of modulation can often result in a large amount of bandwidth however but this isn't necessaryily the same as data rate, eg a 1GHz AM signal would have the same bandwidth as a 144MHz AM signal of the same original audio, but the 1GHz would have a much higher data rate in the sense of samples per second of the audio. Since the band we are allowed to transmit in is only a limited range of frequencies, the more bandwidth a communication method uses the less people can communicate simultaneously in that band without interfering with each other. In a computing sense typically the bandwidth is related to what is essentially the carrier frequency, how fast the data can be sent, bits per second. When it comes to the internet there's 2 main "bandwidths" the data transfer rate, eg 8mbps, and the monthly quota eg 20gb per month, they are both essentially a data rate, just over different timescales and limited by different factors.
