Have you tried the 'arc' program, based on old MSDOS 'ARC'?

That'd be .3gp not .3pg.  It is just an mp4-compressed Apple QuickTime movie
file (ftyp).  Should play with most video players under linux with the right
codecs.  But they're probably 320x240 or something though; not terribly
useful outside the phone itself.
