    All instruction manuals and programming books put me to sleep. I learn way more by just sitting down in front of the IDE and Compiler and trying to implement functionality, then searching the 'Net when I get stuck.

    Which airline? Most 777s on international flights have personal video players even in coach. Of course, you would know better since you've already been once.
    I'd go with the DVD player. Mine gets 4 hours on a full charge and you can pick up a spare fairly cheap. That's 7 or 8 hours. I'd recommend either Lonesome Dove, Into the West or Band of Brothers.
