NiftyTelnet and MacSSHPPC are good SSH clients for the Mac.  I like MacSSHPPC better, but NiftyTelnet has SCP - both for sending and retreiving! - built into it, which is quite handy.  

MacSSHPPC supports SSH 2 and uses ASCII color, which Nifty doesn't.  Can't really understand why, but it doesn't.
