Operating a Sony camcorder?

Question

My model number is DCR-TRV 830. I need to buy some accessories for this model. I was thinking of buying the following:

USB cable

CD-ROM (SPVD-004 USB Driver)

Head cleaner

Platten roller cleaner

How much would they all cost? Is this camera compatible with all Windows laptops? What is the head leaner and Platten roller cleaner for? Where can I buy this stuff in Bradenton,FL?

I already have the camcorder so don't tell me to buy a camera instead.

In addition to your same question. You will need a firewire or iLink cable to transfer video from your camera to your PC. While you are at it you need to see if your PC has a firewire port. Again check the Sony support site for your camera model & your PC support site for firewire information on your model.
