Pinnacle Video Transfer Needs No PC

Wouldn’t it be nice to be able to transfer videos from your camcorder to your harddisk or your iPod when you are traveling without having to carry a laptop computer?

Browsing through the new products on display at the local Best Buy, I noticed something interesting. It is the Pinnacle Video Transfer, a nifty little gadget that lets you transfer video data from an analog video source like a camcorder onto your iPod, harddisk or a USB drive.

Some of the listed features…
