John, Take this with a GIANT grain of salt, but I have these notes about embedding a third party MSI saved off onto my person WiX wiki:
http://wix.mindcapers.com/wiki/Embed_a_Third_Party_MSI It's a cut and paste from this mailing list I thought might be useful, as is 99% of the content on that wiki. When I get time, I plan to clean it up, but for now, the wiki is just semi-organized wix-users tidbits. I was thinking of trying this in the next couple days myself.

Creating a CustomAction in a DLL I write that spawns the msiexec application against the MSI's maybe? _____________________________________________________________________________ Scanned by IBM Email Security Management Services powered by MessageLabs.
