Default What should I add to my Tab for a 19 hours flight?

I will have to make a back and forth trip in a couple of weeks that will last about 19 hours per way... so I'm planning to use my Tab to have some fun and try to make time to past by a little bit faster.

Besides putting some movies in it (by the way, to play divx AVI files, do I need anything else than the standard player?), what other programs would you recommend me?

Maybe some puzzle games such as sudoku to pass time? Default media player should be fine but I'd stick rockplayer on there too.

I play a lot of angry birds and let's golf and also use the kindle app a lot.

Aldiko and some ebooks, podkaster and some podcasts maybe?
An audio book or two for while you're playing puzzle games. Flight Control is always an entertaining one for passing time on planes.

Hmmm didn't think of Sudoku... I'll have to install it.

I'll test the stock player, if not, I will have to think about a new one...

Yes, I have some PDF to read for photography... I will have long time to take a look at them.
