A good advice is to always use tmux or screen in your ssh session, just in case your ssh connection drops out.

I also use Hacker's Keyboard on Android, but on tablets I sometimes don't find it comfortable when I would like to type with my thumbs. Does anyone know a good alternative/solution for tablets?

Some time ago, I ran into a series of posts where someone used an iPad, a bluetooth keyboard and a Linode server to do work. It's not exactly smartphone-"have everything in your pocket" purism, but it's close enough.

These are the 2 blogposts related to that: http://yieldthought.com/post/12239282034/swapped-my-macbook-... http://yieldthought.com/post/31857050698/ipad-linode-1-year-...

It's also nice to see 2 other blogposts of his on the same subject: http://yieldthought.com/post/42450188171/working-in-the-clou... http://yieldthought.com/post/60180703528/microsoft-surface-v...
