    I bought a cheap Chinese one from eBay and it worked fine anyway.

    You might get it cheaper from Johnny China man but if you want fast delivery from an Irish then here. There's a load of sellers on ebay anyway.

    It's been a while since I installed it but from what I remember, it was a pain!

    Ah yes I forgot about that. Stupid windows doesn't recognise a microsoft device and auto install drivers. It's a pain to get it working.
