They are used interchangeably with USB1 devices. No problem.

Well, USB2 is said to be a lot faster than USB1.1, and it is ... to a 
point. People who think that USB2 is actually faster in real-world use 
than Firewire are just plain crazy. It looks faster on paper, but it's 
SOOOOOO not.

USB2 is kind of the poor PC user's Firewire cable, and can be found on 
many of those sorts of devices (apart from video cameras, where FW will 
forever rule). As I say, it's buggier and not as fast as FW, but hey 
those guys weren't smart enough to pick Mac, why should they get a 
connection technology that actually works well?
