Copying P2 Data with Automater?

Is there a good way to have Automater automatically create a new (numbered) folder and then copy all of the P2 data from the mounted card into that new folder?
Like this: ?

1. Create new folder called "1"
2. Copy all P2 files into "1"

Without modifying Automater, after inserting card again (once its full again, or once a different P2 card is full)

1. Create new folder called "2"
2. Copy all P2 files into "2"

and is there a way to have automater automatically NOT overwrite any data, just in case?... So far I've just been copying all of the data in the P2 card using drag and drop into numberd folders.

Thanks.
 
Have you looked at p2genie.com? It's an inexpensive automated program that does everything you're talking about already.
 
Anyone know if P2 Genie works with Windows Vista? I checked out the P2 genie forums but no one's really on there and there was no mention of Vista.

EDIT: I actually found the email and tony from P2 Genie just responded.

The current version is not certified - nor officially supported - on Vista. However - I have heard of users who are using P2 Genie on Vista since Panasonic released their P2 drivers for Vista. The next version will however be tested and certified for Vista and if you buy the current version then the upgrade to the next version is free.
