I think everyone has the 3-5 MB on internal storage needed to install at least one language pair. The discussion is whether we should requre extra permissions to be able to store MANY language pairs. In that light I think 25% is good enough.
BTW, I think people with storage problems can move the whole app to SD, right? We have android:installLocation="auto" in the manifest: http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/data/install-location.html "If you declare "auto", you indicate that your application may be installed on the external storage, but you don't have a preference of install location. The system will decide where to install your application based on several factors. The user can also move your application between the two locations."
