This must be such a trivial question for those who know but I don't so...

I'm looking to get a memory stick to use with two computers. One has USB2.0 and the other only USB1.1.

If I get a USB2.0 stick will I have any problem reading it with the slower machine (other than slower transfer times)?

 
Devices certified as USB 2.0 are backward-compatible (can be used with) USB 1.1.
