cheap DJ soundcard recommendation

Hello

I am doing some digital djing gigs from time to time using my laptop, and don't want to bother carrying my heavy multi-input soundcard with me. So i am in search for a cheap, reliable 2 stereo outs usb or firewire soundcard for djing purposes.

I have very basic needs : i just need to be able to plug a headphone to be able to listen to the tracks from the library while the main output is outputing something else (1/2 out = main out, 3/4 out = headphones preview).
I will make 6-10 dj sets a year, so i don't want to spend too much cash on it (100-200 brand new, 50-130 used), so i'd take any advice or opinion from experienced users, if any around

I have been looking around, but didn't find much :
Aimed at the DJ market, i found :
- there is the Maya card which is rather cheap but doesn't inspire me much trust : MixVIbes Maya, made by ESI...
- the Numark DJ IOcard seems ok : did anyone tried it ?
-and what about a Phonic Firefly 302 or a Terratec Producer Phase 26 Usb ? (not aimed at DJ, but the featureset seems to make it ?).

Any opinion or user experience ?
Thank you
