You could get something cheap like the Griffin iMic to go from USB to the analog RCA inputs for your preamp. I think it comes with the mini-phono plug to RCA connector that you need. This has worked acceptably well for me -- and it'll get you started.Then you can take your time (build up your bank account) and look for a proper USB DAC or whatever.
As this has an ADC input (whence the name iMic) it also gives you a cheap-as-dirt way to bring an analog signal into your computer from your phono preamp to make mp3 from your beloved LPs and thence to you iPod. The direct and easy way is to use Audacity -- which is one of those miraculously free open source software operations.
So, just to be clear, this is not a card-carrying high-end component. But it's simple, cheap, and it works.
