It would be great if you could find a way in a future release to get away from the rather clunky "point to an image that you already uploaded to the images folder to use with this product" protocol.

I build by joomla installs with the JCE editor w/ the extended image manager, so my clients are used to simply uploading their images in the copy when they need them, resizing them on the fly, generating the thumbnail automatically, etc. Telling them to now go back to using the (painful) media manager to first upload their product images, and then to go back to the product editor to add the iamge to the product is a bit of a step in the wrong direction.

DigiStore is using media manager from Joomla. Maybe we need to wait Joomla 1.5.

I'm using Joomla explorer to upload images because, like Joomla image manager, DigiStore is really substandard when it comes to image handling.  First, the images are unfindable, the directories are unnavigatible, the data doesn't refresh properly, and more.  This is really a loose end in Joomla and in Digistore.  It's so bad, that it borders on heresy to call this "content management". Sorry to be so blunt, but this is not a difficult programming task.  Someone just needs to do it right.
