(Nitpicking: real gigabit Ethernet over USB 2.0 is impossible, USB 2.0 is limited to 480 Mbit. Still better than 100 Mbit Ethernet.)

Yeah, I know, that's why the old one sucked.

[EDIT] sucked is harsh—it did what it said it would. It sucked if you actually wanted to use the Pi for serious IO of any kind. USB2.0 and Ethernet limited to USB2.0 speeds was no good at all for that.
