The most pressing need IMHO is to support SDHC cards, simply because smaller capacity cards may not be available indefinitely. I have a 10Mb CF card in front of me which was used on my first ever digital camera, incredible to think that in less than 10 years, we now have cards which have 1600 times the capcity.

The concern is whether the existing hardware supports SDHC cards; there was talk of a new driver being required, I just hope the hardware isn't proving to be a stumbling block.

Other than that, I doubt there is much in the pipeline.
