If you've searched for video conversion tools that allow you to prepare a video file for your handheld, you probably know that there are a lot of choices.
Lathe has been getting a lot of attention for it's low price and simple interface. I've been a fan of
Fair Use Wizard and
DVD Catalyst.
But free tools are always very popular, so here's one more free option I hadn't heard about before -
SOMPY Movie Encoder. "Watch movies on all kinds of devices including Pocket PC, Palm, Smartphone, Portable Media Center. Have fun on the go. It's so convenient to put your favorite movie, TV show in pocket and watch them anywhere, anytime. This software provides you a easy to use interface to convert video files(wmv, rm, rmvb, avi, mpeg, mpg, Tivo2Go, etc) or DVD(*.vob) into small size portable format(avi) playable on your device."
