I've been using Mosh for a few weeks now and my impression is positive overall. My biggest criticism is that Mosh doesn't support mouse integration. I use a bash script that sets up mouse integration and then launches Mosh for me, but even then it's still a little glitchy.

Otherwise, it's pretty transparent and does its job well.

Still no working scrollback buffer. That's the big stickler for me. They said it would be fixed in v1.3 but that was a while back.

It seems easier to install than it was last time I looked at it. I remember trying briefly and giving up, on both Linux and Cygwin.

I haven't tried it yet, but I suspect it will go much easier now. Since I happen to be doing a lot of interactive work on high latency 3G connections right now, this is a good time to give it another shot.
