Is there a way to tell Honda I prefer a Manual Shift Hybrid?

I've read some talk of an upcoming 2010 Honda Fit Hybrid. Unfortunately the upcoming 2009 Honda Insight is a CVT automatic transmission. My understanding is though that the original Insight came with a Manual Transmission option.

Why no more Manual Transmission Hybrids? I won't be buying the new Insight because I prefer a Manual Transmission.

Anybody know if Honda has a medium for providing customer feedback to them about this issue? I'd like to see a Honda Fit Hybrid with a Manual Transmission.

I don't think it matters at this point.
It's not coming to the US anyway.

They won't really care as they probably have done their market research.
