"Spb Software House, the leading Pocket PC software developer, releases Spb Mobile DVD — a desktop application that provides a simple way to convert DVDs and video files to mobile format with the fastest possible speed and a true real-time preview. According to a recent Spb Pocket PC Survey, approximately 50% of Pocket PC owners watch movies on their Pocket PCs. They watch videos while traveling or during just about any idle time. One can share home videos, show cartoons to children, and more. ...Spb Mobile DVD is optimized for the fastest conversion speeds on one core, hyperthreading and dual core processors. On a new PC it is possible to convert a 2 hour long DVD film in about 20 minutes! Factors which affect conversion include the CPU, DVD player, output video settings, video quality and zooming mode."



Spb makes some amazing Pocket PC applications, but they don't seem to have much when it comes to the Smartphone. However, their latest offering should work for any Windows Mobile device. Mobile DVD will help ease the pain and frustration associated with ripping movies for playback on your device. I'm interested to hear what everyone thinks about this app, and if it works well for converting movies for the Smartphone.

Cool, thanks Jon! I didn't see your review when I posted this otherwise I would have included that in the post.

So, it looks like it will work on the Smartphone - I see that it supports 320x240. 8)
