No, there is not. Do you already have a MBPR and want to upgrade, or are you holding out to buy one until you can upgrade it yourself? If storage is a huge issue, pay more for the 768 GB SSD. I can guarantee that a third party SSD is going to cost more than the price to upgrade from Apple, since OWC's 480 GB MacBook Air SSD is $700.

Yes, I just got one about a month ago. I assumed when I bought it that I would be able to swap out the hard drive and/or ram just like any other apple laptop. Boy, was I surprised! So, is the SSD "soldered" onto the motherboard?
The SSD is not soldered the RAM is.
Just to verify then, when a compatible SSD becomes available, I'll have the option to do a self install?
Donny - check out the iFixIt teardown, note the SSD is a sub assy bd. (Smontaggio MacBook Pro Retina Display da 15" versione metà 2012) We expect a 3rd party will offer an upgrade or two for the SSD as they did for the Air.
Donny, if upgradeability is that important to you, return the laptop and buy the non-retina version. I'm surprised that someone like you—being so concerned with being able to upgrade your machine—didn't check our teardown before purchasing a new laptop.
