That's kind of easy. Just go to a local shop.

That's also easy. EHCI is no longer classified as confidential information
by
Intel. Go to:   http://www.intel.com/technology/usb/download/ehci-r096.pdf
For the USB 2.0 spec itself: http://www.usb.org/developers/docs.html

A proper bus manager implementation should be able to handle
both USB1.x busses and USB 2.x busses. However you need
3 different bus implementations: UHCI, OHCI & EHCI.
