I agree. I use ssh somewhere around 10 hours per weekday, have used a bunch of different clients, and really have no idea what sets this application apart from any other ssh client other than a bunch of vague adjectives. If they can't manage to set the product apart, at all, why am I going to give it a look?
I know some of the other comments here excuse that by saying its marketing, or that these words are to describe the interface. Thats good and all, but if you're trying to sell me an ssh client, its OK (hell, almost mandatory) to assume you're talking to a slightly technical audience. Show us the nitty gritty that will make me _want_ to pick this application over any other. As much as I clicked around, I couldn't find anything.

Because it's Panic, a company that has earned your attention by consistently delighting you. If that doesn't describe you, they probably aren't really trying to sell you an SSH client.
Ok, and thanks for assuming from my post that I don't care about interface, but then show me _that_. All I see other than an generic iOS interface is a keyboard with a few convenience keys. Is that it?
Yep, that's all. But hey, it's iOS where you can - given enough hype and marketing - make everything sell well.
I wouldn't dream of installing a SSH client on my iPad - simply because the keyboard has no physical feedback. I can't type on that thing. I guess there will be many people who will buy this app and still will be disappointed afterwards.
