The thing to remember is that Amazon sell the eInk Kindle at cost price, as a device for Amazon content consumption. They have no incentive whatsoever to encourage you to sideload many thousands of books. I very much doubt we'll ever see an eInk Kindle with large storage, for that reason.

If you want large storage, you'd perhaps be better off with a device which isn't associated with a bookstore that has an SD card slot. Pocketbook and Onyx both make some attractive readers. You will pay a considerable premium for such a device, though, because it's not being subsidised by a bookstore as the Kindle is.
