Virtually all new Sky+ HD boxes actually have 500GB HDD with 250GB reserved for personal use. In the unlikely event you get a non Amstrad model it will have (as you quite rightly say) 320GB with half reserved for personal use but this is very rare now.
I don't understand how adding 1TB to a box which is functionally identical to the standard box can add such a big cost to it although compared to high street models it still offers good value, as Tivo does.
