That depends on the bitrate you convert it at. I generally use
PocketDivxEncoder's default Pocket PC video setting with slightly better
audio and a 2-hour movie runs 250MB.

You have control of the audio and video quality settings and the program
will give you an estimate of filesize before encoding. Back in the days
when memory cards were more expensive I used to squash some 2-hour movies
for the kids down to 100k or so to fit my leftover 128MB CF cards. While it
was uglier, it was still watchable.
