Cable release mod
By far, the easiest way to attach a cable release is to use the Holga Cable Release Accessory. These are readily available on eBay, but that isn't the only way to do it, you can also glue a nut onto your Holga that a cable release can fit into, or BURNBLUE came up with a pretty sweet non-destructive method using a clamp:

The Holga cable release accessory
As far as I can tell, the Holga Cable Release accessory is official and will fit any 120 Holga (although not the TLR, or WPC). The accessory attaches over the front of the Holga and allows you to use a standard cable release. The only caveat is that it is a bit of a struggle changing the bulb slider once it's on.
There are two models of the accessory - one built for older Holga's and one that works on both older Holga's and post-2009 updated models. The only real difference is the cutout on the bottom. Luckily, it seems like it would be easy to modify the old accessories to accommodate new Holga's.
