Anyone downloaded this? Anyone have a sense of how it compares to any other ssh clients?

I was super excited when I downloaded TouchTerm, but it was just so difficult to do anything with it on my iPhone that I gave up, despite thinking it was very clever. The Prompt screenshots at least look a lot cleaner than TouchTerm's, but I don't want to go through another fit of excitement only to never actually use it.

I haven't tried out many other ssh clients, but I just bought prompt. I'm really digging the little bar above the keyboard that adds the most commonly used keys like esc, ctrl, tab, @, arrow keys. It makes my server admin jobs a lot easier.

I downloaded it. I was a long time iSSH user on iPhone and iPad (with external keyboard). I'll be using this instead. Emulation looks better, arrow keys are easier to find and use, and it looks better. I'm a sucker for a pretty face.
