USB Wifi card recommendations?

Just wondering if anybody has had good luck with a particular USB wifi card?

I had to remove my PCI wifi card due to space and cooling issues, so I'm looking for a USB card recommendation.

It would be nice if I could sneak a decent one (if there is such a beast) up under my headliner by the front or rear window and get reasonable range..........

Anyone?

I am using this one: cheap Edimax pci card.

Haven't had it in the system long (haven't had the SYSTEM long...) but working fine, in both Windows AND linux.

EDIT- Sorry, I missed the USB part.

DOH!

I'm thinking about getting either this 300mW Real-Tek one or this 500mw Alfa one.

Has anyone used either of them and can comment?
