HadoopDB makes no claim to any support for writes at all, I'm just 
speculating that It Should Be Possible given my understanding of its 
architecture, which is admittedly limited and based solely on reading 
the paper and a bit of the code. :)

Analytical queries against static data are exactly what it's for.  I 
have no experience with its competition, namely parallel/distributed 
column-oriented databases, so I can't say whether they're any happier 
with writes.

FYI I brought up HadoopDB on the NoSQL list too but so far not too many 
takers...
