I'm noob on PPC scene. I just got one recently (my father gave me his ipaq :P).
I just want to know what is the average size of a movie on PPC because I want to buy a SD-Card but I don't really know the size I must take.
Thanks for ure answers.

Activesync is extremely unstable when handling big files, so it's ususally recommended that you use either a flash card reader for the computer to transfer the movies or use other software than AS.
might be worth checking out also, it's supposed to be a better alternative to AS, I never got it to work though and now my evaluation time is expired (it's shareware).
There are other ways too, I guess. I transfered a movie once using ActiveSync and a ftp client on the ppc and a ftp server on the PC. It worked but takes a loooot of time (several hours I think because of that slowass ActiveSync).
Anyway, I think a flash card reader could be the best alternative.
