Wouldn't they have to delay the console? Or wouldn't that make it more expensive?

Ram is pretty cheap.  It shouldn't be that expensive to add an extra 4 gigs of ram.  Didn't it already have 8 gb?

you can buy a 4gb ram card easy for sub $30 for a single consumer.  For a big company like Microsoft buying millions and putting them into a console, they would get a good deal or already have deals, ect.  I doubt it would even cost $10 extra per console.  

if they plan to sell 50M+ consoles that's 500M+ by the drain. that kind of thing must be really well planed because if the extra RAM doesnt grant them any/much extra software or hradware sales, it will be wasted.
