Cool! I just realised that I get to download a free piece of commercial software from HP's Ipaq Choice website. I chose a nice little app called DVD to Pocket PC

Watch DVD's on your Pocket PC in full screen with stereo sound. This software squeezes a feature film onto a 128 MB memory card.

Turn your Pocket PC into a Pocket DVD Player. This software allows you to convert a DVD to your Pocket PC and watch it in great quality, with stereo sound and in full screen landscape mode. A memory card as small as 128 Mb is sufficient to store a full length feature film.

In contrast to competitive products, nothing needs to be installed on your Pocket PC, the movies run on the built-in Windows Media player! Take your DVD's on the plane, train or automobile; watch them on vacation, at work or at school. With only two clicks, this PC software automatically converts the content of your DVD to a super small movie file, which will play on any Windows Mobile 2003 device, such as your HP iPAQ Pocket PC, on a postage stamp size memory card.

The big advantage over competing software: there's no need to install special playback software on the Pocket PC, it works out of the box!

You can use a headset or the built-in speaker to listen to the sound. Subtitled and foreign language DVD's are also supported. Using Microsoft's supreme Windows Media 9 encoding, feature films look crisp and sharp on your Pocket PC and still fit on a relatively small Secure Digital card. On a 512 Mb card can even store 4 feature films! And after watching them, you can put 4 new ones on, over and over again.

For movies longer then 100 minutes, Makayama Software recommends a minimum memory card of 256 MB is required.
