Bigger Storage for the Wii

I remember reading a quote (way back when) from Perrin Kaplin that said that the Wii would be able to connect to external USB hard-drives; later on this statement was corrected and they said it wouldn't be possible.

Personally I would love it if it was a driver because before christmas I bought a 250GB external hard-drive on special for $99 (cdn) ...
