iPod, DVD player, texting, Gameboy/Video Game, a book, Laptop, Sudoku, Crossword Puzzles, magazines, sketch book, digital camera, word/social games, studying, mini-board games, snacks, cards, puzzle games...ummm...5 hours really isn't that bad. I had a 2 hour flight with a 3 hours of waiting yesterday, and then another 2 hour flight this morning. If you are traveling with someone, it makes it so much better.For me, personally, though: iPhone for music/email/facebook, and my laptop if I get really bored.
