RE: compressing mp3's
get a program that can encode the files to a lower bit rate. If you have nero look in audio > encode audion files. then choose mp3pro (only 30 files unless you register) and choose a low bitrate (64 kb/s or something)

when encoding a lot of files, in task manager put the encoder to high priority. you wont be able to do anything else but it will finish much quicker :)

Actually, don't. Your phone doesn't support mp3pro anyway, so using it would be a waste.

For compressing really far, I'd recomend mono, as lizard.boy said. Drop the sample rate to about 20 KHz (try to use even factors fo your source, for example, CD is 44.1 KHz, so use half that = 22.05 KHz)

and all this is to be done with nero still?

You should check what mp3s your phone can play, maybe it only has limited suport.
