Not sure if it would be a good idea, we'd end up with a PS2 scenario after a while.
First off, many new adoptees who hadn't previously owned an XBox will now have a bay they have nothing for, which will cause MS to have to make something for them, which will cause the problem of non adoption and money loss. For example, notice the PStwo the redesign has no space for a hard drive. It was because of the lack of peripheral interest. The only game that fully supports it COMES with it, and not a lot of people have been purchasing it for PS2, rather they go for a PC version, which is much cheaper.
Secondly, there is still supposed to be onboard storage, in the form of Flash or what, I don't know, but it will supposedly exceed projected use for 5 years.
It still isn't 100% official whether it will be backwards compatible or not, however. We can only wait and see.
