My wife has the Archos 5 - with DVR add on as well

You can install Opera and games. It also comes with a small IR remote keyboard allowing you to type in urls and such. Elise has been using this a lot to view her favourite tv shows on her daily 3.00 hours total train commute.
Battery life is great 10+ hours. Her laptop can do the same but it is a bigger thing and holding a small device like the Archos and viewing a movie or tv show on there is more ergonomic in a crowded train.

I already have entered portable device hell - I have many - too many but like them a lot. I tend to have periods when I am more partial to one and use that for a while and then I move over to another. The Pandora might actually steal all my time once it has arrived.
