The Belkin looks good at $9. Whatever you do, make sure it's 2.0 and not "2.0 compatible." I bought this one from "we love macs" http://www.welovemacs.com/uh241.html after reading the line "Supports USB 1.1 and USB 2.0 devices at full speed " They charged for shipping and of course I'd have to pay return shipping, so I tossed the board aside after finding it was really a 1.0 card. That all, just be careful what and where you buy.
