Yes USB 2.0 supports former interfacesas well , anyway i'd strongly recommend a usb 2.0 stick since it will provide faster transfers and also i dont think there will be any huge price difference btwn them :D

whay are u even thinking of buying a usb 1.1 stick when u have a usb 2.0 board ??? usb 2.0 is backwards compatible with usb 1.1 so dont worry about compatibility on other systems too.
