I tried mobileorg (for Android) when it was first made available but it
didn't suit me and I didn't particularly like my Android phones in any
case :(

I use a Nokia N900 (maemo, aka linux) or Nokia E7 (Symbian) these days,
both of which have real keyboards.  In either case, I simply ssh to my
desktop and run emacs in screen to take notes.  With screen, I can have
an instance of emacs running constantly which I can access very
quickly.
