i just download it remotely with my n800 directly from the browser and then play it with mplayer. With the touch it has to be converted so you cant watch it unless you get back to your computer and then convert it. It sucks to do that ...... atleast for me.
You'd be surprised by the amount of content that just plays via the built in quicktime plugin. Since the iPhone/iPod/PSP/PS3/Xbox360 all share the same format now, you can just click videos and they start playing. (MPEG4, h.264, mp3, aac, .wav, aiff)

There is obvious room for improvement, like being able to get podcasts on the iPhone directly, but I'm sure it will just be added to the iTunes client at some point.

You're right though, if its a divx movie... you can download it straight to your N800 and enjoy... assuming its a very low bitrate and low resolution.
