Robert, it's on my list for the weekend. The digicam manual clearly describes how to either record incoming AV to digital tape OR simply bypass the digital tape and output to PC.

Is anyone using Virgin Mobile prepaid cell phone? Comments?

Robert, converting analog video to digital video using a DV camcorder: I tried it and was able to record from the AV signal of my old camcorder to DV casette. No problem with that conversion. But, I could not transfer from DV to my laptop because it does not have a DV input. A PC card is available epinions.com

I don't want to invest more money in the 3 year old laptop, so will wait until I buy my next computer.

PS: still pictures from the DV camcorder transfer easily to the pc via USB cable.

Robert, here's the manual for the dv card media-server.amazon.com

Costs under $90 at Amazon. I asked the manufacturer if it works on my specific laptop PC.

PS: here's a card for desktops costing $50 list pinnaclesys.com
