You don't need to buy a USB device. From a terminal, do the following commands:

sudo su -
echo "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/timg-tpi/ubuntu hardy main" > \
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/kernel-ppa.list
apt-get update
apt-get -u upgrade

After these commands are executed, a new kernel with patches for the BCM4301 problems will become a candidate for installation. Install it and the necessary firmware and your wifi will work.
