First of all, go back to Dixons and kick the salesman in his stupid, stupid face.

After getting back from the police station, do like Marc says and have a look at the straight-to-DVD camcorders. It's not as good quality for editing purposes, but even if you can't transfer by USB2, you should be able to put the DVD in your drive and rip the footage off there.
