(MY EDIT OF MY POST: 10/26/08 noon (pacific))
I HAVE FOUND THE IDEAL CONVERTER THAT I HAD BEEN SEEKING. IT’S CALLED “PRISM VIDEO CONVERTER” AND IT WORKS LIKE A CHARM!
THE WEB SITE HAS MANY OTHER SOFTWARE PACKAGES AND SOME, IF NOT MOST, ARE FREE.

Now, there’s no need for a reply to my post, UNLESS, you have info on something even better.
Thank you.
==================================
I’m very tired of downloading software that advertises and claims to convert ".3gp” to .avi, .wmv, etc.
Not one of them has ever fulfilled their claim!
Most of them don’t even have ".3gp” listed in their list of formats to convert TO.
I don’t want to spend a fortune. Actually, a simple, freebie utility that merely does that one thing would suffice, but I am willing to pay for something that actually works without constant need to contact their tech support.
My primary objective is getting the ".3gp” video clips off of my cellphone to my hard drive, convert them to a format that Windows Movie Maker will recognize and use. I want to edit those imported files with WMM.
Of course, the converter MUST also retain the audio of the original .3gp file!
Please — do not recommend software to convert TO ".3gp”.
