At least as of VirtualBox 2.2.2 for Linux, you don't need to convert the VMWare hard disk. You can just create a new machine in VirtualBox, and as a disk select the virtual hard disk file in you VMWare machine. Done! (You'll just need to install the VirtualBox machine additions in the new machine to enjoy the same level of integration)
And remember, as the Help of VirtualBox proclaims...
Warning
Do not run other hypervisors (open-source or commercial virtualization products) together with VirtualBox! While several hypervisors can normally be installed in parallel, do not attempt to run several virtual machines from competing hypervisors at the same time. VirtualBox cannot track what another hypervisor is currently attempting to do on the same host, and especially if several products attempt to use hardware virtualization features such as VT-x, this can crash the entire host.
