Thanks to everybody for their suggestions. I wound up getting the Senao
because the drivers are in the 2.6 kernel, most of the tools I'll be
using have support for the Prism2.5 chipset, and this card has the best
sensitivity of the all the fore mentioned cards.

I found a few links about the card if any else is interested:

Thanks again!
