USB Wifi Dongle

Does anyone have any recommendations for an affordable USB Wifi Dongle/Adapter or whatever you want to call it? It doesn't have to be anything special, just something that gets the job done

Okay, I'm using my iPod Touch with PdaNet to get internet on my desktop. I downloaded the desktop client for Mac and Windows, and it works great with Windows, but I can't get it to work for Mac.

Any advice?
