Oh YEAH ! :D

I can't agree more with that ! I wish I had an EmacsOS smartphone ^^.

I hardly edit my lists directly onto my smartphone. I find it quite
complicated and error prone but my main UX problem is with tha
ability to export an encrypted version of my orgfiles. I do not want
them to be stored as clear text on something like Dropbox. Until I
can GPG encrypt them and make mobileorg using it that way, I won't
use it again ^^ (That means MobileOrg can deal with GPG encrypted
files too.).
