Vollee has a vaguely usable SL client "running" (I think they're  
cheating and just streaming the video from elsewhere) on various  
phones including the iPhone. It's not perfect, but the couple of  
times I've tried it on my N95 it wasn't _too_ painful, it at least  
served the purpose of getting in world, moving around a bit and  
talking to people.
