Canon photostitch and QTVR

Sorry - i think i posted this question in the wrong foirum just now so i am putting it here is the tech photo one.

i am considering buying a canon s3 IS (or one in that series), (mostly because of the tilt/rotate viewer screen).
I understand that canons come with photostitch for panoramas and here's my question - what do i need to turn that flat panorama into a "barrel" QTVR file (these open in quicktime and rotate with a click and drag.)
i have used these on websites - very useful for real estate and B&B presentation - i have a high end landscape design site underway and i think the panorama might be god there. the person who makes these here is using an old apple software that is no longer available and runs on OS9 only.

i called canon tech and they knew nothing about converting to QTVR, so i am guessing photostitch doesn't do it.

is there an inexpensive software for this? has anyone done much with QTVR and have some suggestions for me?

thanks

here's what a google search of qtvr came up with:

looks like cubic converter is the best deal for making the QTVR ad cubic connector for inserting hotspot s for hyperlinks.

in case anyone else is interested in what i found.
