'Reportedly'?
It's in the specs, it has a MiniSD slot.

I believe there are MiniSDHC cards being developed (there are definitely MicroSDHC cards on the way, so it'd be odd to skip one iteration entirely).
However, unless iRiver specifically state that it's MiniSDHC-compatible, then it won't supports them.

No idea. That would be predicting the future, something none of us are overly-gifted in.
And whilst you may feel that the ability to increase storage capacity by 25% isn't a useful feature, a lot of people will, so there may be no incentive for iRiver to make the W10 MiniSDHC compatible.
