phone friendly MUD?

I would sometimes like to play the game from a phone while I'm not at home.

But several questions come to mind.

If anyone else has had experience playing from a phone is there anything you can tell me about how easy/difficult/impractical it might be? Or any tricks you did to make things work out?
(I'm using an android phone)

As far as which MUD game to choose, I guess the only thing that might help a bit is if the game allowed long idle times while logged in. A while ago I tried a MUD on my phone but after about a minute or two it automatically logged me out.
This is not too big of a deal, I can always just play when I know I'll have more free time and not just 5min while waiting for something.

The other things that come to mind are mostly about game clients. I suppose I could also just type all the commands out, but that might get a bit painful on a small touch-screen keypad, so has anyone had experience with a MUD client for android phones that helps out?

NOTE: I plan to mostly play from a desktop computer, so these issues aren't going to really influence my MUD choice too much, but I just want to get info on this topic.
