And don't I recall reading - perhaps here on the forum - that Firewire even at its current specification is still recommended for video transfer because, although Firewire and USB 2.0 nominally have the same speed, Firewire is more capable of sustaining the speed over a period of time - a requirement for video capture? I may have misremembered...
