Another possibility is a "media bridge".  Essentially that digital camcorder minus the optics.
Video (composite or svideo) and stereo audio come in one side, dv output over firewire on the
other.  The one I have at home seems to branded as "Dazzle", but I seem to remember Sony
making them as well.

Of course, that's a new piece of hardware, and our Grumpy Editor already has the Hauppauge
card...

Sony's DV decks maybe what you are thinking of. But they generally cost more than cameras :-)
