There is another one. Somebody has wirtten a little Python-tool to convert srtm files to osm - data files which can be processed with mkgmap.
It is called Phyghtmap.
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Phyghtmap

It is much faster on a multicore processor than srtm2osm because it tries to use multiple threads.

Best wishes
