Pierre,

As Simon pointed out, you can run sage directly on the phone, but I
don't think that's a practical way to proceed.  Using the notebook is
more reasonable, but I did find it quite slow and fairly awkward.

In general, while many people say that "web apps" are the future, things
tend to work much better on a phone with a custom app to provide the
interface in a way that takes advantage of the touch screen while
limiting the effect of the small keyboard by providing smart
completions/corrections/pop-ups, etc.

So I wouldn't buy a phone with sage being the goal, but being able to
use sage when necessary is a nice side benefit.
