If you have access by ssh to a computer that is always on, then I

recommend leaving an emacsclient open and using JuiceSSH of
ConnectBot for editing your org files on the go.

Or, as is increasingly feasible in the last couple of years, running
Emacs on your mobile device. On Android, GnuRoot is a quick and easy
solution for running Emacs along with git, ssh, hg, and anything else
you might need for your org-mode workflow, and it doesn't even require
a rooted device (I prefer using Lil'Debi for running Emacs, but it
requires a rooted device and a bit more commitment).

With a real Emacs on my device (recent screenshot [here][1]), I can
just keep my hg-based syncing workflow that I'm used to from multiple
desktops, rather than adding a new and more complex mobile syncing
workflow. I'm not disparaging the MobileOrg-Android app, it looks
great, and works great given the MobileOrg protocol it has to work
with, but it's just not what I want to work with.
