    EDIT:
    NEVERMIND - Leica explicitly claims to support HC and this PDN review is the ONLY one I see which seems confused about that.

    EDIT 2: (for starters)

    Which is REALLY odd, as SDHC and SD are fully electronically compatible, the only difference is in host-side software. Sounds like an intentional cripple. Sandisk not spending the money to upgrade the E2x0 v1 MP3 players to SDHC is understandable, as they are a low-margin product, but the sky is falling if the M9 is anything but high-margin. (Not to mention the fact SDHC has been out for ages now and whatever driver code came with the interface they are using almost has to have HC capability.) (Ok, guess they could be using 2004 chips from the back room, lol)

    NEVERMIND - Leica explicitly claims to support HC.

    It also has an optional Polaroid instant printer
