Comment (by Don Quixote):

 I would have thought that my Micro Center store brand USB stick was not of
 good quality, but I've been using it for several years and have never had
 any trouble with it.  The Gnome Disk Utility under Ubuntu 11.04 reports
 that it has a read speed of 30 MB/s, write speed of 18 MB/s and average
 access time of 1.4 msec.

 I'm planning to buy a faster stick, either a LaCie Fastkey or a Corsair
 Flash Voyager GT.  The FastKey appears to be the fastest stick on the
 market, but is extremely expensive.  The GT is decently fast at less than
 half the price of the FastKey.

 A faster drive might only help when booting natively off my laptop though.

 I would be a much happier camper if someone could give me a clue as to how
 to access the physical USB device from VirtualBox.  VB allowed me to
 configure the drive that way, but gives me an error when I try to start
 the guest.
