For what it's worth... I find usb hotplug impossible to do wiht the 2.4.x kernel, and it happens automagically with the 2.6.x kernel. IF there is nothing stopping you from using a 2.6.x kernel just apt-get install 2.6 kernel you need and there you have it. GRUB will show both kernels at boot time

That would really depend on the size and the feel. There is aa point of diminishing returns for both. And don't forget smell. Perhaps more important than size or feel. Colour can also be a consideration. I propose a debian-fruitselection list-serve. i know this is not a debian specific
