What can I do to upload mini-dv videos from my video camera to my laptop?
My laptop does not have a firewire connection.
Here is the link to my exact laptop,

Any ideas? I’ve heard of PCI adapters, but would that work with this laptop model?
This is the exact laptop
Toshiba
AMD X2 QL-60 1.9GHz
15.6″ HD+TFT w/TruBrite
3GB DDR2 Memory
250GB SATA HD, Integrated Web Camera
Minidv camcorders have to use a firewire connection, no other way. You will have to buy a firewire card for your laptop. Make sure you have an empty bay in your laptop.
Sprint Pci Wireless – Getting It Right
Fairly recently Sprint PCS Wireless made headlines in USA Today
for offering credit to its business customers for lulls in its
nationwide network. Lulls are explained as dropped calls, fast
busy signals and other minor problems. However unlike its
competitors, Sprint PCS Wireless made a bold offering of a
refund for such problems, and some are customers receiving up to
30% of their monthly Sprint cell phone bills.
Such dedication to customer service is at least part of what has
driven Sprint PCS Wireless to the top of the charts where it has
a strong hold as the number 4 cell phone carrier in the U.S.
with around 20 million subscribers nationwide. One thing Sprint
does have in common with other cell phone carriers is an
interest in improving network design in order to be more
accommodating to the most demanding consumers.
Sprint has a solid line of cell phones and cell phone calling
plans which run the gamut in prices and offerings which help
Sprint to achieve their goal. These plans range in price from
$35.00 a month for a basic plan to a comprehensive 1-800 plan
for under $100.00 a month. For instance Sprint¡¯s Free and Clear
Nationwide plan at $35.00 a month gives you 300 peak minutes and
unlimited nights and weekends with nationwide coverage. The cost
and strength of coverage varies in major cities. Sprint offers a
family plan, Sprint PCS Free and Clear Nationwide 700, for about
$128.00 a month. This plan gives 700 shared minutes and
unlimited nights and weekends. It costs an additional $20.00 a
month for each additional line.
One of Sprint¡¯s most popular plans, Free and Clear (area wide),
is perfect for those who rarely travel outside their calling
area. The plan offers 1000 peak minutes and unlimited use on
nights and weekends. If you travel outside of your calling area
on a regular basis you may want to consider one of Sprint¡¯s PCS
Free and Clear nationwide 1000 plans, at about $80.00 a month.
You can choose a plan with 1000 peak minutes and unlimited
nights and weekends or 3000 any time minutes which includes
nights and weekends.
Take a look at Sprint¡¯s PM6625 top of the line Nokia phones.
This is one of the most complete phones available anywhere. The
PM6625 has all the bells and whistles including VGA camera, full
customization capability and even has infrared Port. Second on
the list is the Sanyo SCP-8100, which includes a camera, is easy
to use, can be customized with Sprint ring tones and is small
and light weight. Third on the list of phones offered by Sprint
is the Handsprint Treo 600, a true cell phone/palm top
combination. With a reliable speaker phone, built in camera,
Palm OS and more, this phone is great but rather expensive.
