The whole camera system is designed to max out at 30 FPS. Even if the sensor can do it, theres the CPU, the data pipeline, the cooling and power.
It's not just a simple firmware switch that can be flicked.
That's what I thought so far. However.. John have you ever heard them talking about the possiblity of "pixel binning"? Some sensors allow for that so you get a little lower resolution but still use the same sensor area... so with higher fps it should be roughly the same data throughput as with 30fps and full res.
Of course even then it would still be a lot of work to implement...
