Is this true? If so, what software is used for this? Yes, video is watchable on the 31 using Kinoma or other software. I just happen to have Kinoma because I also own a T-E. If it's your first Palm and have nothing to compare it with, it's acceptable. I often encode divx movies for my son on trips instead of buying a bulky portable DVD player. As always, your milage may vary. Chris[/QUOTE] Good evening , Sir . My friend just bought a ZIre 31 , and I want to buy the same , but I have a couple of questions . First , my friend tryied to watch an avi movie , 700 mb , and it plays for about 6 sec and then it says "out of memory" . Could you tell me pls what software should I use to encode movies , so I can watch on the palm . Second , will the battery last so I can watch a whole movie ? How long will the battery last playing movies continous ? 2 h , 3 h. Ty very much , awaiting for your answer . Bye bye [QUOTE=ccorrice][QUOTE=JNelsonFox]Question: I read somewhere on this site that you can watch a video on a Zire 31. Is this true? If so, what software is used for this?

Yes, video is watchable on the 31 using Kinoma or other software. I just happen to have Kinoma because I also own a T-E. If it’s your first Palm and have nothing to compare it with, it’s acceptable. I often encode divx movies for my son on trips instead of buying a bulky portable DVD player.

As always, your milage may vary.

I haven’t been able to find a hard case for the Zire 31 and would like to know if you would consider selling it, please.

Is this true? If so, what software is used for this? This is my first "real" handheld, and I really like it; I'm sure that I would probably like the higher end models as well, but the cheap Wal Mart versions of PDA's are all I have ever had, so I don't know what I'm missing out on! Thanks for any replys... Question: I read somewhere on this site that you can watch a video on a Zire 31. Is this true? If so, what software is used for this?

It doesn't have the "rubber" coating that the Zire 72 has. The 31 has a very smooth finish. Fingerprints don't show up at all, and only the heavest scuffing has made any impression on the casing at all. With a screen protector on, I would carry it in my jeans pocket with no qualms.
