I'm trying to transfer video from a Sony DV camera to a Windows Vista PC, but apparently I need an i-Link/Firewire connection.  The PC does not have a firewire port, and best I can see by Sony's software I can't transfer video via USB.  Any ideas?

Never used one, but it makes sense.

That looks like exactly what I need, but it shows only the PAL version being available.  Apparently, the NTSC version is for the US.  Any ideas of the differences between the two?

I forgot to mention, this is a laptop without a PCM-whatever slot on it.

This one if you have a desktop, and

this one if you have a laptop.

ETA:  Reading through the reviews, you MAY want to shop around for a different laptop card than the one I posted.
