well, if you can compile on your zaurus or at least for your zaurus, give timidity++ a try i't a really good midi player/converter that i've used for playing my midis, it works much better than even apple computer's quicktime midi, in fact it's as good i would say as having a midi instrument attached to your computer via midi cable !

timidity can convert to .wav but if your zaurus has a compatible sound output driver it can also play them without conversion
