In my defense, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/feature.html?docId=1000038721\">Amazon&#8217;s supported devices page<\/a> only shows three devices: two from Nokia and one of the ARCHOS Internet Media Tablets.

And instead of using another third-party application to encode the media files for your handset, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simplemobilereview.com\/amazon-unbox-puts-movies-on-windows-phone\/\">Simple Mobile review says you basically just need to check a box when downloading media from Amazon<\/a>. In the the Amazon Unbox Player for Windows PCs, there&#8217;s an option to grab a portable video file in addition to the full-sized one. Once you have the file, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/help\/customer\/display.html?nodeId=3782\">it&#8217;s only a matter of hitting the Devices tab in Amazon&#8217;s software and clicking the transfer button<\/a>.
