I have a few tens of .amr sound files produced on Nokia 6280's and 6288's that I need to hear on my laptop. Here is an example of such a file (my daughter laughing): http://dotancohen.com/images/examples/meirav_laughing.amr I have tried to play with VLC 0.8.6 and mplayer 1.0RC1, but neither of them play the files for me. I did find a program that converts the files to mp3, the Mobile Media Converter (http://www.miksoft.net/mobileMediaConverter.htm), however, I'd like to actually play the files rather than convert them. Google makes me think that Quicktime for Windows might play them but I've no windows box and anyway, I'd like to avoid wine if there is a Linux solution out there. Note that I posted this to the debian list a few weeks ago. I haven't gotten a working answer, so I'm now cross-posting to Fedora. Please excuse my promiscuity.

Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
