the front of the case and connect to the usb connector on hte motherboard.

I know here in Australia there's a shop that sells just the face plate
for a 3.5" drive bay with 2 USB ports and a cable to connect it to the
motherboard header. Costs $7.50 AUD from www.ple.com.au. It is NOT a
USB hub, which is a replicator that is about 5x the price, and not
exactly what you've specified. I personally have these little 2-port
face plates on all my computers.

Similar items available here although the ones I know of aren't quite as
cheap (yeah, I know, just the reverse of how it usually is). One example is
here: http://www.xpcgear.com/aneasfronusb.html but I'm sure that I've seen
others before.

Take a look at http://www.frontx.com

I started out just wanting USB on the front, but as time went on,
I discovered I wanted Firewire and Game/MIDI too. Frontx turned
out to be the way to go, for me.
