Prism2 cards works quite well, I would also recommend them. But
orinoco is getting very old and only capturing packets works, you
cannot inject packets, you shouldn't buy them. And also, the driver
doesn't works well on recent kernels.
I would also recommend an atheros card, you can find cheap ones (less
than 20 euro) and you can also modify them to add an antenna
connector. If you can afford, you can buy the Ubiquiti SRC which has 2
antenna connectors and is able to works on 2.4 and 5Ghz (300mw max),
that's a really good card.
About void11, I think most of these features can be found on mdk2 (
http://tinyshell.be/aircrackng/forum/index.php?topic=172.0 ) and it
works with nearly all chipsets that are able to inject packets.
