I upgraded to 2.6.16.18 today - same problem.
However I did find out that my USB flash stick doesn't work in "high speed" 
mode either.

If I rmmod ehci_hcd then both devices fall back to "full speed" mode 
(12MBits/sec) and work fine.
However copying 100 GB at 12 Mbits/sec takes 18.5 hours which is a real show 
stopper for my work.

If it's a bug in the USB devices then why does Windows XP handle high speed 
devices perfectly? Is Linux less fault tolerant than Windows?
