    Good, affordable XLR Mic-to-USB interface?

    I'd like to get a simple, dedicated USB interface for recording an XLR mic to my computer.

    I'd like to spend around $100 -- less would be great. I'm using a Shure SM-57 right now, but it'd be nice to have an interface with phantom power so I could move up to a condenser later.

    Any recommendations? How about this one from MXL? Seems to be just what I want -- but is it any good?

    Thanks.

    Tascam makes a nice setup...2 mic pres into USB 2.0.

    They also make a bundle which comprises the interface and an inexpensive (but decent) large diaphragm condenser.

    We sell these at the music store where I work, and the salesguy who 'knows' recording gear says they're both a pretty good bang for the buck...
