I think it's cheaper that USB converter and most important you don't waste  
an USB port. Most USB devices comprise of DS2480B and some usb<->serial  
converter like FT23RL.
With 2482-800 you can get 8 buses which you can switch between. Works like  
1 master with a hub. For smaller networks the new DS2483 is better than  
DS2482-100 because it has strong pull up which can provide power for  
sensors.
However I have no practical knowledge how those i2c work I just read the  
datasheets of those chips. As soon as Raspi is available I plan to use  
them.
