(Android Police): Why the Nexus 7 only has 8GB of non-expandable storage
http://j.mp/LF5NCK (Android Police)
"And herein lies some of the reasoning for that 8GB starting point
on the Nexus 7. (Most) pirates are cheap - we know that. That's
why they pirate things. Do you think the average pirate is
actually going to pony up the extra $50 to buy the 16GB Nexus 7?
Probably not. You know what pirates hate? Work. So when they
download a giant hoard of paid apps and games en masse and toss
them onto the internal storage of their Nexus 7 along with a bunch
of ripped DVDs, they'll find that they run out of space relatively
quickly, and start having to make room."
