The Navy flew DC-9s to Hawaii, but even with an extra fuel tank there was a one-hour "can't lose an engine" period halfway across.

Yea, but i think the -700 has the greatest range out of all 737NG. I was on the airbus website lastnight, and they claim 319 can make New York-Paris non stop. I wonder if that includes full payload or close to.
