I have a TRV-460 and I was able to import via USB both
sound and audio before I got my firewire card and cable. I
had no problems. I even got it working as a webcam so the
USB cable will stream audio. I find it hard to believe the
460 would do it but not the 350.

Bottom line, as stated time and time again on this board,
firewire is the way to go. I got my cable and card for
about $30 from amazon. But I've seen posts on this site
where people claim cheaper. Well worth the small
investment, especially when you want to keep the quality
of the video.
