iMovie09 and Micro MV format

I just got iMovie 09 and it seems like this version doesn't recognise Micro MV format. In earlier versions I could import just fine as long as I used a firewire cable. 09 says it doesn't matter if you have a USB or firewire, both work fine. Only problem is I can't find my firewire cable.

My question is, can iMovie 09 be used to import from a Micro MV camera (with firewire or USB) and if not, what are my options?

Thanks for any help.
