I have also thought about the new SDHC drivers as I have switched to the WM6 rom...but will wait until the 6 or 8 gb ones come out (either Minisd or microSD w/adaptor.).
Alright, this will be my final update to this thread. I did just have the main 2gb partition corrupt on me while I was moving files in a card reader with my PC (not in the 6700). - Overall this partitioning of the 4gb into 2 2gb partitions allowed stable operation for over 4 months or so - so much so that I had started neglecting to do a backup of the SD card on my laptop.... I have even been using programs installed to the partition with no issues (Hubdog, Slingbox, anything).

Anyway, today I am running the new WM6 with the SDHC drivers and I have switched to a 8 Gb SDHC Microsd w/mini SD adaptor which I bought from Verizon for $103 ($129-25% company discount). It works perfectly. I am hoping it will not corrupt.
