Well I am going to take the word that Richard read Sony docs on the case. The document says developers have a guaranteed 4.5GB.  This was not disputed by Sony or anybody else.  Anything after that was part of the flexible memory.  How that flexible memory is to be used really isn't that big of a deal because it was not part of the direct memory.   Developers can depend on only having 4.5GB at any given point in time, thats what guaranteed means.  After that, they can use addtional memory but I am sure those are based on scenerios if the memory is available.  ALso within the EG article Richard never said this stuff was written in stone but and could be changed by Sony as things mature on the system.  There is nothing fundametally false about the article and based on his sources he clarified the parts that needed more understanding.  If the document is outdated then why would Sony have developers with outdated documents about their system.  You say you trust developers but there is nothing to say that the same sources DF is using is more rep than Gaf.

Last but not least, you are basing your opinion on unknown sources against another person unknown sources.  Difference is that the person doing the article is not unknown and I am sure he trust his sources.  So yeah, I would put more stock on a person willing to put their face and name on the line then someone jumping into a forum, who no one has a clue who that person is or their agenda saying something is false or that some game somewhere is doing this or that when they cannot even name it.
