one step in the right direction for Pilot...

So just for the helluvit I tried ssh to Pilot today... and I got
a password prompt, i.e., it worked!  And then I typed my password
and it told me "Authentication method disabled."  Damn.  Hmm,
okay, let's try another auth method, like a DSA key.  So I
generate a DSA key and upload it and get a prompt for a DSA key
passphrase... and it again tells me "Authentication method
disabled.".

Oh well.  I guess they'll enable it someday.

(Another mildly interesting thing I discovered recently is that
you can browse arbitrary portions of the web from Pilot, by going
into `h'elp, which is actually Lynx, and using the `g'oto
operation.)
