I am still running a g4 pb (1GHz 1.5 GB DDR SDRAM 60G HD)

Is there a way to upgrade my slower usb 1.1 ports to new faster usb 2.0? It seems like it would be possible with a pcmcia card, bus some of the documentation sounds like it would dumb down the new prts on the card to 1.1 because of software issues. Is that correct?

Any help would be appreciated. Got an iphone coming in a day or so. Would hate to have hardware problems.
