Again, I think a web-based system would be better. For example, you could on the cheap write a PHP script to SSH into something and reboot it all while presenting a web interface to your mobile. Safe and effective!
That implies my ability to write a PHP script with "click here to reboot" will result in something safe. I'm not sure I trust me that much.
Just think of what happens if it's a clickable link and I screw up a password check somewhere and Google starts spidering that page... :)
Just an hour ago, as I was composing the original email in this thread, I discovered that you can use starutil to remotely reboot a tower; I may create one of those regardless, on the "it's cool" principle. It doesn't eliminate my need for a decent SSH client (to, at least, SSH into a Linux shell server, from which I can telnet into all those old Trangos I still have, for which there isn't an easy remote-reboot option).
