Are these any good? I have a Cardbus one at home in my desktop (via PCMCIA
to PCI adaptor card) but was thinkin gof getting a memory (64mb) stick with
build in 11mbps wifi just for carrying about and scanning where ever i am
and store netstumbler on the built in memory

Are these any good?

I don't have one, but people have made note that the USB-stick WiFi are
just too small to have an effective antenna. In your case, a combined
memory stick and WiFi would probably have an even smaller antenna.
