Maybe the Echo Indigo I/O?  A nice, affordable, reliable, well-supported 
stereo mini-jack in/out PCMCIA (sorry, CardBus) card.

It will almost certainly give you better performance and less hassle 
than a USB device, but you won't get much hardware flexibility, you'll 
obviously get minimal i/o capacity, you won't get balanced i/o or even 
1/4" jacks, and the SNR ratio might not be quite as good -- though it 
will still be pretty damn good all things considered.

Maybe better for on-the-road recording than an effects box, but worth a 
look.
