Up on Amazon? I can't see it there.
Yeah, it's on there. I found it through a tweet, the site search doesn't seem to return the correct results.
16gb is £319, 32gb is £399
They've called it "HTC 8.9 inch Nexus 9".

64GB + 128GB models would have been nice.
I agree and we really ought to be moving on now from 16GB being the entry level of storage. Should be 32GB is the lowest capacity model.

Ha! Thanks Cosimo and mark2410 - I guess they are still optimising their search tags. 
Also having a real hard to justifying the extra £80 for the 32GB model. But unfortunately, it's probably required. Absolute rip off. I'm sorry but do they think they are Apple or something?

I think they are pricing this directly at the Air/Air 2.

It's disgusting. Google have turned their back on the old Nexus ethos of providing great spec at a low cost, which will hurt their sales. But now to add further insult they want to charge £80 to double the storage. Feels a little like the twilight zone going on here.
The price difference between the two sizes seems a bit extreme. The 16gb still seems to be a good price for what it offers though, might go for that, I hardly use the space on my 32gb N10 since I just access the video/music files from my desktop or Google Music/Drive. Really want to see more solid reviews on the K1 though, it sounds like a beast but I'm worried about the battery usage and heat, the back of my N10 gets hot under heavy usage...

Well.. my arse is red raw. I've ordered the 32GB.
I'll watch for the early reviews which will come and if K1 turns out to be hotter than the sun's surface and a battery hog, I'll cancel the pre-order.
God damn. I already told myself NO to this.

Has this device got expandable memory or not? The world seems divided but it must be obvious to someone

No expandable memory Arikostinaal.
The thing that always gets me with 16GB is when it comes to holidays, I like to pack out a selection of movies and shows to watch which demolishes the 16GB of space. OTG cable is a possibility, but it's messy.

ditto.
i have a 16gb N7 and its just not enough storage. 32 is better but really id have much rather seen 64 or better yet an sd card slot.
am really also unhappy with the pricing. this gouging for a tiny little bit extra storage makes we want to say screw it and buy a hudl 2 instead.
