As you pointed out the Nia is specified (advertised and sold as) as having 8Gb of storage, and, therefore, it has to ship with 8Gb.

If you had some Nias coming onto the market with 8Gb and some with 16Gb, there would be hell to pay legally.

Even though the device is specified as 8Gb those that only had that would feel short changed if they found out others had 16Gb, and lawsuits would soon be flying.
Then how did Amazon get away with advertising 2GB and sending some Kindles with 4GB?
