Tough decision... I've been to OOL twice in the last year and can definitely recommend the visit. You can fly in mid-day, take in some activities such as one of the various wildlife parks, stay at the Sheraton Mirage for the evening buffet, get up early in the morning and take a long walk on an almost deserted beach watching the sun rise over the pacific, go back to the hotel for the - just as large - breakfast buffet (or go for a workout at the newly refurbished health club) and head back to OOL. Plus short field operations in a 767 are sort of cool also!

As much as I like Melbourne, I wouldn't recommend it for just one day. In my view, it is a more complex and interesting city than Sydney and requires more than a few days to explore the nooks and crannies.
