I really do need to explore the Steak in more detail. Thx again for the recommendation!
If anyone else has any insights/recommendations, I'd appreciate it. I don't know, maybe I'm just being ridiculous comparing these two devices?

Actually I wasn't advising you to get the Streak since you don't want a phone (though it is only $399 unlocked and off contract, has been upgraded to 2.2 for many months, by far the best phone I have ever seen runs even Flash like a dream -- the Nook has less RAM and a slower processor) I was suggesting you get the Archos or some other tablet device in the 5" format. Since you want the solution that offers both portability and good browsing, that is the way to go. 3.5" devices have only half the screen area of a 5" device!
