And Google isn't really "selling" anything, you can upgrade Google Drive storage. But they aren't really selling you a service, just promoting it. Like I said earlier in the thread, they didn't include a microSD for another reason not because they want to promote their cloud. http://blog.clove.co.uk/2012/07/10/why-do-nexus-devices-have-no-sd-card-slot/
Just like the top of that article, it's not a conspiracy to tell you to use the cloud.
Disclamer: I am not saying that this guy is right or wrong. But that is just Google's explanation on why they don't include a microSD expansion. Take it how you want. I am neutral on the situation, if there's 32GB internal memory on the device, the microSD expansion slot becomes irrelevant to me. If it was included with 32GB standard, that's great. If not, then it's not the deal breaker for me. For some it is, good for you, look for a new device.

Looks like 8GB is a confirmation. Tsk tsk tsk.

No LTE so far, hoping it's on the official release but doubting it now. Deal breaker for me...
