Na, doubt it highly. USB Flash has a LONG LONG way to go with USB 3.0 being released.

don't think they'd do it due to the higher cost of the media, sure, a class6 would be sweet for it, but, not that practical in production price. besides, HVD is probably going to take over in the future.

Don't forget about SDXC, too: 2 To, 100 Mo/second, anyone?

THAT is the future, the actual SD and SDHC are only the first baby steps... that thing and its future improvements will kill any other format currently available...

i always dreamed this would happen. However I would like to see it in a next gen system. I am not sure exactly how well Wii's SD reader works, but if it could manage launching full games of it without hickups I wouldn't mind it.

No, it's too expensive and will probably will remain too expensive for quite a while.

It's not too expensive
Some years ago a 1GB SD card costed 20€, now a 8Gb SD costs 20€
