I'm looking to get a new mobile and want one I can log into my accounts from. I'm thinking of getting the N97 at the moment.
Has anyone had any success with adwords on a mobile?

Please take this the right way.
All mobile phones are terrible interfaces for web work, and you are normally in the wrong atmosphere to work with adwords. So step back and question why you would want to do this on a regular basis? This should not be a major consideration for your phone purchase.
If you're on the go a lot and need to check in on your campaigns, look to get a netbook. A netbook will give you the screen size and horsepower to get some real work done, but you can still slip it into your backpack with ease. Also, consider using Adwords editor instead of the web interface which does not rely on Ajax or other languages that could make your browser toss cookies.
If you choose to get a netbook be sure to find one that has at least 1GB (Ideally 2 gigs)of memory and 160 Gigs of Hard drive. around $250-300. If you like to use Skype to make calls and chat, then get a notebook with an integrated camera, again to cut down on bulk.
My Sprint plan includes a USB wi fi connection. I can plug it into my laptop for longer business trips, or into the netbook for around the town use. My wife uses it while at the park, or in the bookstore and around town. So now, we're using a service I was already paying for almost daily instead of monthly!
It was 85 in San Diego yesterday. So instead of staying in-doors I was able to take the netbook to the beach and get some work done in-between boogie boarding and sand castle building.
Hope that helps
