Verizon doesn't know how to support Nexus devices. They had one and screwed it up royally. A Nexus device is supposed to have a clean OS (no skins or junk apps) and is supposed to be the first to get each new version of Android until Google stops providing updates for the device. I'm looking at my Verizon Galaxy Nexus running 4.2.2. 4.3 has been out for about half a year and other carriers have updated the Galaxy Nexus to 4.3 but not Verizon. Every update for the Galaxy Nexus was delayed by Verizon for weeks if not months and they're not even bothering with the final update for the phone. I bought a Nexus 10 tablet when it was released and it was months before both of my Nexus devices were running the same OS. That lasted 5 or 6 months before the Nexus 10 left it behind again.
Verizon doesn't deserve another Nexus device. They had their chance.
