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.
