And whats wrong with the one in this thread?
It's only $14 and just doesn't look as cool. BTW, I doubt any of those memory sticks can go as fast as USB2.

That's probably true, but they can go a heck of a lot faster than USB 1.1. I have the USB 2.0 SanDisk reader and it downloads pictures from my 128MB Lexar CompactFlash card 5-10x as fast as the USB 1.1 readers built into my two printers (one an HP Photosmart, the other an Epson), or the USB connection in the camera itself (a Kodak DC260). It's possible that these don't actually reach USB1.1 speeds, of course.

My point is for $5 or so, go for USB2. There are 24x SmartMedia cards out there -- 3.6MB/sec, well past USB 1.1's capabilities.
