I'll give my USB CI-V a shameless plug ;-)

It's based on the FTDI USB chipset, and the drivers work great on the 
Mac. There are even Intel Mac drivers, works great on my 20" Intel 
iMac. Also Mac OS 9 and even Windows (gasp!) drivers. Most linux 
kernels have FTDI drivers built in now, so it should work there as 
well. The virtual com port appears like a normal serial port, so it 
just "works" with most any software.
