Compatible USB wireless

I'm about to install Mepis 8 on my Acer Aspire 5003WMI laptop. The live
CD runs fine but the Broadcom 4318 card isn't recognized (no surprise)
due to Acer's wmi cruft. I fully expect to use ndiswrapper and the
newest WinXP driver, but in the event that this proves problematic (the
original Win driver I obtained was limited to WEP), could the people on
the list recommend a usb wireless device that works well with linux?
FWIW, Mepis 8 is based on Debian (lenny).

TIA

John
