[LAU] Decent but not necessarily pro quality USB audio for laptop?

I'm looking for a decent but not necessarily pro-quality USB audio
device for my laptop. The laptop currently has the usual built-in Intel
HDA audio, with only a headphone jack out. I'd prefer something with
line-level output.

I mostly just listen to music via the laptop, but also use it for mixing
live recordings of my church band. (Although I might want to be able to
occasionally record from the mixer's line outs.)

Any opinions on the following devices?

SYBA SD-CM-UAUD USB Stereo Audio Adapter

SoundTech STUSBST LightSnake Stereo USB Audio Interface

Behringer USB Audio Input/output Adapter (UCA-202)

M-Audio Transit

I think they all work with Linux, but can't really tell about the Syba
or SoundTech devices.

Thanks!
