If you’ve been keeping up with SAI lately, you probably already know that I really like Google’s new flagship phone, the Galaxy Nexus.

Verizon’s 4G LTE network is slowly expanding across the country, however at the moment, the difference in speed between LTE and the usual 3G/4G isn’t that great for most people (those who live closer to the towers get all the advantages, of course). What’s more interesting is that the price for 4G LTE smartphones were pretty darn high, much higher than for high end 3G smartphones that often were better in every other aspect.

Verizon decided to do something no carrier has done to a Nexus device so far: preinstalled bloatware on the Galaxy Nexus.

Annoying.
