Was going to buy the SX40 tomorrow but it looks like I will probably pass...

From reading the thread of comments, it sounds like CHDK will enable long exposures.

You can override the ISO and set long exposures with CHDK. I have taken pictures over the 1 sec limit with the ISO from 100 up to 3200. The longest I have taken was over 100 seconds. But I do agree that canon should not have put these limits on. Thanks to the guys at CHDK we have the ability to override them."

Firmware 100f and 100g are in ALPHA right now.

I know it is not in BETA yet but some of the many features work.
