Yeah, I never viewed this as a "flagship device". Everything you could stuff into those voids is a choice with poor tradeoffs. - Bigger battery: More cost, more weight. And who has battery issues with a tablet anyway? Mine lasts forever. - Performance: More cost and doesn't actually require much more volume - Storage, RAM: Much more cost and not really how Pixels operate, sadly. - Better camera: Who does this on a tablet? Really? So okay, we're mocking the empty space but what do you want to put there that you're willing to pay for?

And to add to that list: - Different versions with any combinations of those things: I'm sure they did the analysis and determined the market wouldn't support that.

> who has battery issues with a tablet anyway?...Better camera: Who does this on a tablet? Really? I do need both of those things. If you don't need any functionality of a tablet, maybe you dont need a tablet at all??
