D.C. v. Heller, at least until the decision comes down and possibly not even then. A few links. First, the transcript of the oral argument is out, even though it just concluded a couple of hours ago. A rundown of the argument and some analysis is available at the Scotusblog. More analysis and lots of comments, as usual, at The Volokh Conspiracy.
All the above is interesting to people really into Conlaw analysis, the courts' take on the Second Amendment, and Supreme Court watchers. Still, court watching is a pretty slow ballgame. The decision most likely will be handed down some time this summer. In the meantime, I recommend everyone do something really helpful (and almost as exciting as waiting for the written opinion on Heller from the Supremes) and assist in this noble effort to prevent spontaneous gun violence.

I wouldn't expect the Supremes to come out with any sweeping decision. All of their published opinions have, thusfar, been very fact specific. Still, you never know, right?
Bob- I don't expect a broad decision, either, especially given the Solicitor General spent most of his time at oral argument warning about the effect a strong individual rights precedent could have on the federal statutory scheme. Like you say, though, you never know. I wouldn't have predicted Kelo from the previous court.
