Best Pocket Linux Distro


What is the best pocket linux distro out there that has a decent size package add-on selection? I have use Puppy Linux and Slax but I think that they still have a ways to go as far as packages. Any other suggestions?

I've heard of pendrivelinux. Considering that it has a 400 MB plus download size, I'm assuming the package choice will be extensive.

interesting. I took a look at the site:

www.pendrivelinux.com

and I took a look at the app section. Strangely alot of the apps were for windows like the anti-virus section. It says portable but there are no packages written for pendrivelinux distro. I am assuming that because it is such a big distro it, they treat the packages as normal packages considering you will need a bigger usb stick. Regardless, it has a lot of great tutorials. I will give it a shot.
