It definately makes sense for them to use Blu Ray. It's probably the cheapest way to get dense, higher speed media without resorting to flash.

What if they do resort to it?

Flash would be awesome but they'd forgo b/c

Not unless they have a legacy drive. Heck, they could even keep the controller and memory card GC slots, as they wouldn't add much to the system (and have their own uses).

adding something as expensive as an optical drive for the sole purpose of b/c makes little sense from a hardware manufacturing point of view... maybe if they sold it separately as an attachment, maybe... but I'm not holding my breath for flash just yet, as much as I'd love to see it happen.
