    Intel 6300 is pretty awesome. It'll fit no problems and is only 30 or 40 bucks depending where you look.

    I agree with Tyranids about the 6300. If you use bluetooth though you'll lose connectivity, consider the Intel 6250 in you do need bluetooth.

    Either the Bigfoot 1103 or the 6300 will do.

    I personally like the 1103, better ping management and higher throughput.
