but my wifi kit + PDA and me are still in syd... so im yet to configure it..

on a separate note.. DELL is goin 44.00 off their PDA's..
they are a bit larger than ipaqs and similar to toshiba's one..
so one with a 624mhz processor and wifi/bluetooth and win mob 2003 SE
is selling for $605.00

Hey,

Umn I have no idea about the Wi-Fi thing but to convert MPEG2 files (that the Visionplus creates) into DivX, the simplest way is to use a simple program on the internet called DVDx.
With this installed and DivX, you can just open the file, ok the input file, then click output, change the top left hand corner to AVI, for the video chose divx and options to chose the bitrate (probably around 800). Audio at 128 Mb/s.
The resolution is the hard part, if it's in widescreen then probably use 504*288 (with the full zoom (16x9 option), if it's in normal square image you need to select Pan and Scan 4x3 and set the resolution at probably the default 352x288 or 376x288 (see which one works best).
Then you can set where you want to send them by the file menu and set the priority to probably the highest (or normal if you want to use your copmuter) and hit record and wait 1hour and you're done.
I've done this off my head so I may not have gotten where all the commands and file menus are clearly.
But there you go - you definetly need to do this or you quickly run out of space.

Cheers
