 It means we are getting external storage support.  The exact opposite of what Perrin Kaplan stated in her interview.  Once again she has no clue as to what is actually happening at Nintendo.

I am Daemon. I am the Word.

Well.. Nintendo has a reputation for denying stuff they are bringing out soon after.. it'd make sense to back up a 'lie' with good reasoning -- and remember, she is leaving nintendo, so its possible she is even out of the loop

 

EDIT: Alternatively, it's also possible it's still not coming

 Are we talking about SD card or external HD?

Joke or no joke you deserve a huge punch any way...

Just wait and see what will happen. WII Ware won't be around until March and speculating until then is more like a waste of time.
