Linqpad[/url] is a good alternative; it supports a object explorer type of panel, and multiple tabs with syntax highlighting like SSMS does.
it's also "portable", meaning you don't have to install anything, but it does assume you have the DotNet frameworks installed.
i keep that on my flash drive along with code /sql backups.
