Actually your issue is more about uk carriers choosing not to offer models with more onboard storage, they want to keep their range as simplified as possible so don't like offering the same model with the only variation being the amount of storage on the devices, unfortunately that means that they end up offering the 16gb variant as they also like to be able to advertise lower prices on this stuff too.
It will be quite interesting to see how they react to these new iphones, I would not be at all surprised if after the initial rush, you had to order the 128gb variants special rather than having them available in every store.
You say less than £100 cheaper, but you do realise that a 64gb microsd card would cost more like £30 so all that has happened now is that Apple are ripping people off less for the larger storage versions than they did in the past.
