>and maxes out at 16GB of storage. I think the key thing here is the "built for Play" moniker. It's also an extension of just how deeply integrated Android has always been with the cloud. I've been using Android since the G1 first came out. My devices are a portal to my stuff rather than a container, and I don't overly care about storage space as a result. My music streams from Play to my phone in the car. I stream Netflix to my tablet. I haven't manually synced my phone to anything in years, and been through multiple devices and hundred of factory wipes playing with different ROMs in that time. Facebook statuses asking phone for phone numbers after losing a phone mystify me because I can't remember the last time I had to manually sync a device to back up my data. The relatively slim storage is as much about a different approach to mobile devices as anything, IMO.
