I'd recommend certain Linksys USB adapters, make sure any you chose are of Atheros, Intel, Cisco, Wavelan, or Ralink if you want it to work. I have no personal experience with USB wlan, but people say it works. I'd recommend a different discussion list to chose the adapter, it'd be best if it were fully supported under both OpenSolaris and the guest in case you need to troubleshoot. Theoretically any may work, but I'm not technically inclined with the USB internals of Xen. USB under Xen is not supported until Xen 3.1, which I don't think it in B81 still.
