3gp is just a special mp4 in the container format avi and low
resolution audio and video, so after adding .avi it should play in
Windows Media Player natively.
The sound usually uses a weird AAC derivate codec (3GPP AAC+), which
Windows Media Player will most likely try to download.

See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3gp

No. But there exist converters like http://mediacoder.sf.net which use
cygwin packages.
mplayer/mencoder and ffmpeg should understand that also.
