I encoded a whole bunch of movies and TV shows to work on my iAudio -- my MP3 player that is not an iPod and could play video about seven months before the video iPod ever came out. I have rediscovered this puppy now that I took the time to convert some of my videos to work on it. Now I end up taking the bus sometimes just so I can have a longer, uninterrupted trip and watch more of a particular movie.
