Avi's on iPaq

My Canon Powershot A80 digital camera shoots 320 x 240 movies in .AVI format.
I would like to remove the CF card insert it in my iPAQ H5550 and view the movie.
Can anyone suggest a freeware or any other program I can use on the iPaq.
I don't think the built-in Windows Media Player 9 Series can view .avi's.

Thanks for that info.........downloaded and installed it and it's surprisingly good
It will do for my requirements.........I bought the 2.2gB 4400rpm microdrive mentioned in another thread here (probably getting it tomorrow) so just wanted to take my Canon on hols shoot a few small movies.....take the microdrive out..put it in the iPaq and watch it on the bigger screen.
Thanks again.
