Had the playbook for a while now and I'm very pleased with it. I noticed the last update was 300 some odd MB's and the last one was around the same. What does the playbook do with that 300 mb after the install? Does it delete those temp install files after finish or does it store it somewhere? Is it necessary to do a wipe after each update?

The general consensus appears to be that it just replaces the OS each time.
So you don't lose the space, it just replaces itself.
A large portion of entire update consists of a bunch of replacement .bar files for the various applications. Those get replaced with the new code just as a regular app install does... no leftovers.
The OS itself is handled similarly... lots of things get overwritten, old files get removed, and the temporary update file itself is removed.
