Remember: Norm and I both have DSi/AK2i units that are en route. There's a part of me that wants to play with that and AKAIO a tiny bit first. I think once we confirm at its core level you can throw AKAIO on an AK2i in a DSi and not have our features lock up on it (basic ones that involve hardware that isn't there anymore, like slot 2), then I think a 1.3 final release can be made available.
After that, more features will hopefully be added on the DSi side, assuming more information about the hardware emerges.
I'm also going to add in a little button I now want for sav backup/restoring from within the rom info window. I'm tired of setting the file view to "NDS+SAV", clicking the .sav file to back it up, then setting the file list view back to "NDS"
