I'm gonna say this. External HDDs are nice and all, but I hate useing external stuff. The Wii's novelty factor comes from it's size. If you put a HDD on it, you double it's size. I also dont think the Wii has a big enough power supply to run a HDD off it's power, so the HDD would need external power. (not sure on this but I know it's close)

The Wii needs solid state memory. Just use an SD memory card. I've linked to 1gb ones many many times for like 8-12$.

8gb one here.

Not true, if you get one in the 2.5" form factor (laptop size) or 1.8", it would be about the size of an HDD based MP3 player.  Probably even smaller because you don't need battery as it would be usb powered.  That would definitely NOT double the size of the Wii and the per GB cost goes down from $8/GB to $1/GB.
