Tny, What distribution are you running - ssh is not enabled by defau7lt on all of them even though the software is installed in the image! The recommended distribution is Debian. If it is the Debian 'squeeze' release then there is a file in the FAT32 partition that needs renaming to get ssh enabled on boot. If it is the Debian 'wheezy' release (http://www.raspberrypi.org/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=50&t=8071) which is far better than the 'squeeze' one despite it being labelled beta then ssh should be enabled by default. So far I ahve found the new 'puppy' linux to be the most responsive. That is however labelled as a 'alpha' release although it does look feature complete.
