iPad will have VPN support. I can use my work VPN with my iPhone. iPhone has ssh clients, and they should work on the iPad. So you should be able to do all that with an iPad.
I'm doing the same thing with my landline phones once my cell line is activated this week. I already have the xlink device, too. I gave it a try with my already existing cellphone first, and it works just as advertised.
