I would do the same, but I like to be able to use video on the web. Not
too many sites embedding .ogg these days :(

I use the "awesome" window manager on the desktop, and have it set with
mostly vi-like keybindings, but this only works for spawning, moving,
and re-arranging windows, not actually interacting with the applications
themselves.

Mail-wise, I've had good luck with "sup", a mail client written in ruby
with mostly vi-like defaults and configurable keybindings.
Not a full-on GUI like Thunderbird, so html mail is less convenient.
