TL;DR

Battery - not an issue.
Less tham 32G - issue.


Long version:

Thought the lack of replaceable battery would be an issue - just carry a
portable USB charger - $20. The Wire Cutter has recommendations. It is actually
MORE convenient NOT to swap batteries.  I swapped batteries with my N800 for
years, so I know.

Storage - that's a different issue. I feel cramped inside 16G on the Nexus4
today.  64G would be nice - more than I need.  On my netbook, I currently use
38G - so I could fit in 32G, but it would be nice not to feel that need.

My tablet has a microSD slot which has 16G class10 in it and 16G internal.  It
hasn't been an issue, but I don't have it full of music - only about 6G, which
is plenty for a trip. Around the house, just connect to Plex and stream anything
desired.  Also have a calibre server on the plex PC - handy for ebook/pdf
management. FBreader will connect, search, download from it easily.
