Aside from specific gnex 2 rumors, there were also a string of rumors over the summer about Google rolling out 5 Nexus devices with Android 5 on Nov 5th in the google play store. Back then we thought Jelly Bean would be Android 5, but it's possible it was always a rumor about Key Lime Pie. November is fast approaching, and Verizon could well have their eye on clearing stock for another nexus, even if it isn't a Galaxy.

If Google lowered the price on the unlocked GNEX 1, I'd consider it, but I'll wait to see what new offerings there are, which might be too late. ;-)

Key Lime Pie or not, this is a pretty damn good deal. The Galaxy Nexus is a nice machine if you can live without the MicroSD slot.

I do like the phone and I could probably live with the onboard memory and lack of memory slot, which is probably a Google, and not a Samsung idea, but I just checked VZW plans in my area and the cheapest individual plan, with a 2gb max, would be $100/mo. If I could live with that, I'd just get the $55/mo. Page Plus plan with unlimited minutes and messaging and still have 2gb.

I really need to see how much data I'm using per month.............

I would love to have a pure Android device.
