No, they want to squeeze an extra $100 out of you for $5 of flash storage. Most people will pay it too because 16GB is pretty crippling.
It's like buying a new car that comes with a 5 gallon gas tank that costs $40,000 and having to pay $50,000 for the same model except with a 10 gallon tank. Everyone knows it's a rip off but the car is really cool otherwise and there is no way to change the tank yourself.
