I'll have to check this point, but I don't think the free RealEncoder allows
for capture directly to RealVideo -- it will only convert an .avi to .rm. 
As you probably know, these .avi video captures can get large fast.  The
RealProducer Pro will capture directly to RealVideo.  I've used this with my
own All in Wonder Pro (8MB).  The results are not too bad, espcially for files
in the 100K+ format.  Encoding for 28.8K dialup, even for 56K dialup, makes
for some pretty bad looking files.  The Windows Media encoder creates
comparable files also, though they are platform-specific to machines running
Windows.

If sound isn't important in your files, then capture at really low sound
bitrates, like 8bit Mono.  If sound is totally important, capture at lower
frame rates.
