Movies to mini-SD

I just got my 2GB mini-SD in the mail and wanted to transfer a few shows from my computer to the Q. How do I do this? I have the Q hooked up via USB to my desktop. It won't let me drag and drop. Any pointers?

I believe there is a way to do it - but I haven't even bothered.

All I've been doing is using the SD adapter for the miniSD and a SD card reader to allow the card to be read directly by my computer.
Then, I just drag and drop whatever I want onto the card using the Windows File Explorer - and when I put the card back in the phone - it all works just fine.

Other options:
Bluetooth the files to your phone
e-mail the files to your phone, launch them, and then check the "Application Data -> Volatile" folder - they should be there - and are able to be copied / moved to other locations.

I use dvddcrypter then use auto gordian knot (autogk) to compress the file so that I can transfer it to a mini-sd card. Be patient though, it could take about an hour and a half to do. I currently have about 6 movies on my 2gb mini sd.

Here is a tut.

Can DVD Shrink be used to "backup" a dvd on a mini sd card? I've been trying to use it, but I can't get the file small enough for my 2 GB card.
