Thinking of getting SuperCard DSOne. Have some questions

For the longest time, I have been using an R4 for my backup solution. But as of a few days ago, I got tired of  arm7 patching, hexediting and bringing my backups to bed to make love to them just so I could get them to run on the R4 and its horrible outdated kernel.So I am thinking on getting a Supercard DSone, but have some questions before I plunk the money down and buy one.

1st question. I have heard that the recent DSone's support both SD and SDHC. Can anyone confirm this for me?

2nd. I know it has a cheat function but how robust is it? Does it support all the games to date or only a few? Is there any type of code manager which allows you import/create your own codes?

3rd. Is this one of the better cards out there or are there better ones? (like M3)

4th. (and this is the most important to me) How is the compatibility with games? Are there frequent updates? to get the newer games to work? How long does it usually take for a non working games to get an update?(does it take a few days or weeks?) (also can it play the new sonic racing game and the sonic collections? trying to get these two games to work on the R4 is driving me nuts)

If anyone can please answer these questions for me it would be appreciated. Thanks in advance

I just wanted to reply as a quick note.

I had gotten bored of the NDS but, I will share what I have experienced with the Supercard DSOne.

1) I have Supercard DSOne SDHC. I have not tried the SDHC feature, but the regular SD works. So presumably, the Supercad DSOnei SDHC will support SDHC.

2) The cheat function should support all games up to date. I'm not sure if there is a code manager, but you can probably find a cheat database to update from.

3) I think all the cards are almost all alike... Supercard DSOne has Real Time Save, and has its own 4mb of memory to write or something. It also has the slowdown feature, reading a guide feature, cheats. I think this rivals the M3, especially with the new EOS firmware.

4) The compatibility seems to be high. You could look at gbatemp.net for issues to get new games to work. Not sure on the new sonic games, but perhaps someone else will enlighten you.

Previously, I would not have recommended the Supercard DSOne, but since the new Evolution OS firmware came out, it seems pretty nice.
