Maybe prelude to more powerful iOS versions of traditionally OSX software? If, for example, you had a fully functioning office suite and/or creative suite, stuff that's capable of 90-99% of all that can be done on the traditional "computer" but with a touch interface and screen optimization for a small retina display, then what sort of storage overhead would you need? Could be that someone who really wants to replace their laptop will need 40+GB just for their grown-up applications.

Example: Maybe all this stuff is supposed to live in the cloud, but my corporate Outlook inbox alone is 3GB, and that's just email and attachments. My photo library lives on two external HDDs (one for backup) it's still under a terabyte, but my camera files are only getting bigger... I don't have a memory card less than 8GB anymore...
