This came across my desk yesterday - I guess I get to "scoop" it:

The FC5025 5.25" USB floppy controller is now available!
Device Side Data's FC5025 USB 5.25" floppy controller plugs into a
USB port and enables you to attach a 5.25" floppy drive. With the
FC5025
and its included software, you can read Apple, Atari, Commodore, MS-
DOS,
North Star and TI disks.
For more information and to order, see the web site: http://www.deviceside.com
Before ordering, please note the limitations described on the web
site. In
particular, the FC5025 is read-only; it can read floppies but it can't
write
to them.

I'm not affiliated in any way, but I did succumb to a knee-jerk
reaction to order one. That was before I remembered I don't have a
1.2MB 5.25" floppy drive to hook up to it. ;-)
