Nokia N93 for certain as averred by other posters. It's not exactly a
'compact' phone, but knocks spots of the competition when it comes to
video recording. It's also very good at playing video clips. I use a
program called Xilisoft DVD to 3GP converter (strangely similar to
another app called 'Imtoo').

You just pop a DVD into your drive and Xilisoft converts it to a
format for the N93 (or any other video capable phone like the SE K800i
etc.). Great for watching TV shows on the way to work. Best codec I've
found is 3GP at 256kbps and a screen res of 320 x 240. I am very
impressed with the quality. A 30 minute show at this setting comes in
around 100-120Mb. So your 2Gb miniSD card can hold lots of different
stuff. There is also the advantage of recording each chapter of a
title.
