I absolutely love Wishes. Thank you Wizards for these.

@spoonish
Your sideboard actually IS considered to be outside of the game. In tournament play, it used to be that the Wishes could get cards that were either removed from the game or cards from your sideboard. But now that the condition of being removed from the game is an official, not-outside-the-game zone known as the Exile zone, the Wishes in tournament play can only fetch cards from your sideboard.
However, in casual, they can get ANY card from your entire collection or your sideboard, which I think is where they're really fun ^_^ Hurray for spending 15 minutes trying to dig out one rare from your boxes and holding up the whole game!! :D

@Omenchild
They didn't change the rules about this regarding the Exiled zone because that would defeat the purpose of cards like Scour, Splinter, Quash, Extirpate, et al.

Technically speaking you can cast this and then go buy some cards after your opponent passes priority, I think. (Usually you can't do anything during resolution, but buying cards from people isn't a game action...)

This would be completely undercosted if you could pull from your exiled zone, not to mention stupidly annoying. It would make JTN useless against any gold deck in extended:
"I play Lord of extinction, he's a 48/48."
"I cast iona's judgement, exile it."
"Glittering wishes, he comes back to my hand for 2 mana!"
That would be a serious facefuck :\

Hey! You could use Glittering Wish to get back that first Glittering Wish you used earlier on in the game! Very useful! Hey, wait a minute.....
