Actually, that is exactly what I did on a recent trip.  I was already 
bringing an android tablet and did not want the extra weight of adding a 
laptop.  So I got a small USB keyboard with built-in pointing stick, and 
since there was no x2go, resorted to VNC.  It worked, but x2go would have 
made things simpler and maybe faster.
