I really don't know alot about current camcorders or portable HDDs but wouldn't you need a computer to do the transfers or do they have hard drives that would download and store the data without a computer interface?
Then I Have to lug a laptop around 2 continents... seems like too much of a hassle. I think I need the computer to transfer the data, though I believe there's a Sony straight from camcorder to DVD recorder... I think it costs $300, and I'd still need dozens of DVD's.
