Hello, new to tec stuff on cell phones. Im leaving nextel (sprint) for verizon next month. Looking at lots of phones. Ive settled on either the samsung 990, lg 8300, or wait for lg 9900, or wait for lg8600 flip. But..

Does the phone have to have some kind of movie player? I emailed samsung and they said the 990 can't do that. Do they just say that?
Ive read on here about converting things to 3g2 format. Info on that also please. Go tec guys. this forum is awesome.

Google ".mov to .3g2" to find a converter. Many apps you have to pay for $30-$40, but if you plan on doing it alot, well worth the price.

Another option for you (same price range) would be the Moto Q, playback is the best I have seen on a s...
