Will there be a FireWire 800 adapter for the iMac core duo?

If not, what would be the best way to have and external HD for video editing?

The new iMac really isn't intended for someone who is going to do hardcore editing to a point where they're running multiple FireWire 800 drives. You'd probably want to pick up a PowerMac for that.
