I haven't tested this, though I've been meaning to since I have a spare 8GB MicroSDHC card and have already opened up my Kobo Wifi a few times.

It'd take more than just imaging across the 2GB card contents to the 8GB card, of course. You'd need to update the partition table to reflect the new card size and resize the user-accessible fat32 partition. Both of those would be pretty trivial ... if the hardware can read SDHC cards.

I might give it a go if the enthusiasm strikes. I'm a bit sick of Kobo at the moment, though - the *@#$@$# thing just lost my page near the end of a 500 page book and doesn't have a "go to page" function so I have to do about 1000 button clicks to get to the end - argh!
