Can't help you with the Communicator series, but for on-the-go  
writing, I have to put in my vote for my current phone, the venerable  
Nokia 6800. It doesn't do much as current phones go, but its flip-out  
57-key QWERTY keyboard make it an excellent light-duty text editor.  
Excellent industrial design for its era.
