You don't even need 64Mb!
A fully featured linux OS would easily require 500mb of Drive space. But, even a slimmed down version would find it useful for future expanibility.

A great thing would be to add 3G (europe) or EDGE (us), it is less
battery-consuming and you can download books just everywhere!
And bluetooth would be great instead of USB.
3G and Edge require cash, lots of it in fact. Students can't afford expensive mobile network contracts. Business people, yes, but that's a different niche.
Bluetooth though, yes. Why not IR too, just for legacy compatibility. So long as you have an intelligent power management system that can totally power these things off to save battery power and they don't add too much weight, then there no downside.
