I have the software to control my shutter on my rebel, and the shutter equipment is on order. Is there anyway for me to attach the camera to my laptop so that the images are directly downloaded to my pc and available for viewing?

Another thing, I have two batteries for my rebel. Is there any sort of powersupply that I can connect my camera to so I don't have to worry about my batteries dying?

Thanks for the help guys.
