New P2 Workflow at DVinfo.net

So I've been using Firewire from camera to mac as a means of capturing p2 data. I'm about to shoot something that requires almost nonstop shooting. My question is. What is the best solution for a p2 reader for the price. I'm just going to be using 3 cards, and while 2 are in, the other will be transferring.

If you have a MacBook Pro get THIS, if you want to go cheapy get THIS with a PC or G4.

I have both products and they do what they're supposed to.

What is the transfer rate if one were to use a Duel Systems DuelAdapter PCMCIA with a mac book pro 17'?

Also, couldn't I just plug the camera to a computer via firewire, which method would provide with faster transfers?
