Converting files to WMV is not a free option.
If you cant afford the cost of flip4mac you dont need it.

if someone can't afford something that doesn't mean that they don't need it. I only need to convert 1 video to .wmv, I can afford it, money is not the issue, I don't want to pay $50 to convert 1 file.

Try this site for a free conversion; media-convert.
Post back if you have success with it...I never used it...have F4M, which is worth it if you intend to do conversion often.

Export the file as a QT at the resolution you want and find someone with a PC and QT. They should be able to open the file and export it using the free media player in Windows.

You may want to find a site devoted to that phone. Perhaps they can help you out.

Good luck,
