While I don't have a "smart" phone, nor a tablet, is Blackberry worth
considering? I guess not:

"According to Levison, the F.B.I. agents who came to his house were
surprised that he hadn't seen one of the sets of documents that had been
e-mailed to him demanding Lavabit's information; they pointed to his
phone and said he could look up the information right there. He
responded, 'You know better than I do why I don't have e-mail on my
phone.'"

"... He doesn't use e-mail on his Android smartphone, for instance,
because neither the software nor the hardware of any commercial phone
can be trusted; carriers and phone makers can push malware onto the
device, he said. Yet his views are far from radical. ..."
