Apart from Adobe, you havnt got alot of choice, unless you want to start getting into top professional editing suits, Avid Studio (i think its called that) will set you back about 3 grand.

As for the sony vegas thing, yea alright If sony camrecorders are crap (for the money you pay), then i dont think their "professional" editing software is going to be any better
