The part about Telnet is truly scary... Among people who have "clue", the biggest reason I have heard to continue running ssh1 is for emergency access via hand-held smartphones or other pocket sized devices. The Handspring Treo 180 and similar keyboarded cellphone-pda devices don't have the CPU power necessary for a SSH2 key exchange, unless I'm drastically mistaken about the FPU abilities of a 33 MHz Motorola Dragonball...
I've heard there's an SSH2 client for the Treo. Ah, here it is: http://sealiesoftware.com/pssh/The Danger Sidekick can do SSH2 with "Terminal Monkey" which was free up until recently. :) It's fun, but kind of hard to get any real work done with the tiny screen.
