If you are talking about increasing the size of the CF card that can be used;
it is my understanding that at this point that is meerly a software issue. I
was talking to the guy who makes the Book Curier at Closing The Gap and he says
that they can already do that, and it is strictly a BookPort firmware upgrade
that will be needed to increase the capacity to 4 gigabytes. Got to say I am
ready for that one.

: it would be slow, but maybe in a later fermware, it could be done. Right
: now, I think that the bookport has limmited processing power, even in the
: USB departement. Thus, it only has USB 1.1, I think. And I don't think a
: harddrive could be hooked up right now, we'd need new harddrive, because the
: USB ports would have to be different. And an adapter might work, I'm not
: sure. But imagine the power you'd have with 80 giggs! It would be nice, I
: can say that...
