I rarely think about the USB ports on my Sonnet Tango being USB 1.0 or USB 2.0...I just have my stuff plugged in, and am normally oblivious to what data rate things are s'pposed to be going. I will suggest, however, that you at least consider a combo card, versus FireWire alone. If the price of peripherals is of any concern, to you, it would be nice to have the option to buy the cheaper USB peripheral, than to hunt for the more expensive FireWire version.
