But you can only have 2gb of open space on it to work on the wii.

The update will hit in the Spring of next year, and don't forget that 2GB maximum when stocking up on the little buggers.

I was hoping for them to unlock bigger cards with SDHC, though, who knows until final stages!

The SD card reader in the Wii isn't SDHC compatable. It's not something you can patch up with software.

Although, Nintendo could still give us SDHC support.
Any reader that supports sd standard can be updated (software or firmware) to support sdhc.

So how do we do this? Is there something we can do now to update it to work these larger sd cards?

i always though that any sd card reader can be firmware or software updated to read sdhc.

you would think you can use a microsd card plugged into an standard sd adapter, but that doesn't work either

I just bought a 4 GB Kingston SDHC Card for DragonMedia Player, and with the USB-Adapter, it works. But it doesn't work with the SD-Card Slot in my Wii. And don't hope Nintendo will release an update to use SDHC-Cards...they won't...

I tried my 8gb microsd with a usb adapter on the wii and wad manger 1.2 was not able to read it.

You could always try this method to get 4gb cards to work in your wii. Not ideal but its something...
