Current status of SanDisk USB Drives on FC3

Hi all,

A search of the Fedora lists and forums would suggest an inconsistent 
experience using SanDisk USB 2.0 Cruzer drives under FC3, though most 
posts are a month or so old now.

Some of the posts seem to indicate that turning off APIC at boot helps, 
while others suggest using a USB 1.x hub has worked.

I am considering the SanDisk 1.0 Gb USB 2.0 drive and am curious as to 
the current experience of anyone using this drive on a fully updated 
(including udev and kernel) FC3 system.

Should I consider one of the other companies (ie. Lexar, PNY, etc.) as 
an alternative?

Thanks for any feedback.

Marc
