Moving from Boot Camp to Parallels

Now that Parallels v3 supports 3D graphics, I want to ditch my Boot Camp partition and move over to Parallels on my iMac. Is there an easy way to "migrate" the Windows OS, or will I have to delete Boot Camp and re-install everything within Parallels.

In case it matters, my Boot Camp partition is already too small for my needs, and so I think that I am right to assume that Transporter is _not_ what I require.

Any comments or assistance? TIA :)
 
Wouldn't it be easier to access your Boot Camp partition from within Parallels and then add another virtual drive to the VM so you can move any data from the Boot Camp partition to the secondary virtual drive. This should free up some space on your Boot Camp partition as well as give you space for more storage and still give you the option to go back into Boot Camp if you needed to. The 3D graphics support in Parallels is still in it's infancy.

Just a thought!
