The 6700 Had a memory slider as well. Since the 6700 had one "chunk" of memory to do everything... you were able to allocate the memory use to your liking.
The 6800 built on the Qualcom processor has 2 "chunks" of memory. Each chunk is used for one thing only. Programs or Storage. This approach is good though, it is faster.
