Free program <a href="http://homepage.mac.com/tylerl82/">iSquint</a> converts your AVI and MPEG video files to iPod-compatible MP4 files using a MAC only.
Drag in your file, click "Start", and away you go. You can even set Screen-size and quality preferences.
On a 1.5GHz G4, <a href="http://homepage.mac.com/tylerl82/">iSquint</a> can convert most video files to iPod-screen-sized videos in realtime. Depending on a few factors, a 20 minute video will take up anywhere from 50-150MB of disk space.
Though the new iPod's limited video encoder support is kind of a pain, <a href="http://homepage.mac.com/tylerl82/">iSquint</a> should go a long ways toward making things a bit easier.
