I'm looking to invest about $350-$450 in a condenser mic and an audio interface for my PowerBook G4 for use with Apple's GarageBand, but I am having a difficult time finding either professional reviews or testimonials from actual users (with Macs running OS X) of the following audio interfaces. If you have any experience or could point me in the direction of some reviews, I'd be most appreciative! The unit needs to be able to record from a condenser mic (phantom power and preamp?) and guitar simultaneously. Midi would be nice but isn't necessary.

Wow -- thanks so much for the warning on the mobilepre! The lexicon might be a smidgen out of my price range, but I'll add it to my "possibilities" list. Again -- thanks for taking the time to reply!
