Some slightly less ambitious but no less practical suggestions:

-Both PCMCIA and IDE to SDHC adapters meant, and tested, to work reliably on A600 and A1200. CF cards are rarer to see everyday. Most recently released models are targetted to the professional photo market and are consequently ultra-fast (tending not to get along with PCMCIA miggy slots) and waaay too expensive. Finding a model that works nicely with your Amiga has always been a lottery, and finding certain brands known to do the job frequently requires searching in the second-hand world (meaning a shorter life-span). I'm aware such things do exist in the outside world, but for some reason I've hardly heard of amigans actually using them, so having models that should work safely in Amiga specialized stores would be nice!

-A service for reflashing old PCMCIA Wifi cards with a WPA encription compatible firmware. That's something many of us would like to do, but it's a tricky and dangerous proccess, and requires some uncommon hardware (PCMCIA equipped PCs, which are rare nowadays)
