Here it is, the first DSi CFW!

(NOTE: Since hiyaCFW has been released a few days ago (as of posting this), and no official thread has been made, I decided to go and make it, despite not making the actual patches for it. :P )

With this CFW, you can run custom DSiWare, alongside region free and 3DS-exclusive DSiWare (WarioWare Touched), on your SD card, via NAND to SD redirection!
You can also run blocked flashcards (such as R4 Ultra).

FAQs

Q: Can I use a custom splash for hiyaCFW?
A: Yes you can. Place it at "sd:/hiya/" and name them "splashtop.bmp" and "splashbottom.bmp". Make sure they're actually saved as .bmp files, with the size of 256x192, with no color space info, and is 16-bit (A1 R5 G5 B5, or X1 R5 G5 B5). .gif files will also work instead of .bmp files.

This is awesome :D
I have a DSi XL who's DS card slot is broken (a piece of paper got in the card tray and the pins got destroyed by pulling the piece of paper out).
But with this hack I can dump my real games using my working DSi and play my .NDS rooms on my broken DSi using the SD card :33

So, I've installed Unlaunch perfectly fine, but I'm stuck at step 12 of HiyaCFW installation.
After I enter the command line it gives me an error "MBR Verification failed! Please ensure your CID and ConsoleID are correct."
I'm sure that they are both correct, my CID is 16-digits long and my ConsoleID is 32-digits long.
Any help would be appreciated!
