Wendy, I like to make movies at 475mb each for about a 2 hour movie. This can be determined by you in step 8 of the tutorial. Some people like to make them 300mb, some like to go as high as 750mb. The higher you go the better the picture. If you use 475mb then you can fit 2 movies on a 1 gig cf card.

Next issue is about transferring the movie to the cf card via activesync. Don't do it that way, it will take forever! Get a cf card reader, and transfer it using windows explorer. Transferring it via card reader will take 6-8 minutes per movie, maybe even as much as 10 minutes, depending on the speed of your comuter. That is far faster than activesync.

Happy movie-ing!
