Yeah this is similar to what Barnes & Nobles did for the Nook Color. This is very interesting!

Shouldn't this be posted in the PS Vita System And Accessories forum section.

this means they have close to 3gb free to play with for system files. Plenty of room to expand upon.

So maybe this is memory sony tapped into to privide 1GB storage on vita 2000.

no the NAND is used primarily for system files and firmware they wouldn't partition it for internal storage.

Well cool beans. I guess this means theres plenty of room for updates over a long timeframe. Im cool with that.

I <3 Innuendos.
Well that's good but I'm more concerned about large changes to update the overall handheld itself.

Hopefully this means that Sony has more flexibility with the UI for the Vita; with 4gb available they could release a monster firmware OS if needed.I don't think this news really means anything as such apart from being able to copy the NAND content to your PC (which is currently encrypted, and no idea how many times encrypted at that, could be any number of layers to get through).
I used to know someone who had a tinkered PSP which did a few great things (used to love the emulation side of it plus some clever homebrew apps out too), otherwise what with me with the Vita instead I've been more than happy to invest in it legitimately. I personally hope that this doesn't lead to the console being hacked, as even though the aim maybe to add even more features to this console it'll be swallowed up by piracy and that's the last thing the Vita needs right now. If that did happen you'd see an increase in console and memory card sales and a sharp dip in game sales which would lead to lower development in future games.
