Patrick,
I scanned your email.
I haven't/couldn't moved to iWork09. My emac isn't powerful enough. I
am using iMovieHD-6.03 with an '03 eMac.
What I've been doing with my last movies is using Garage Band for
audio. If you are reimporting sound, I highly recommend it. You can
see the movie while working with the sound, which you can see and
edit more easily. And it sycns much better and more readily--I think.
