Android 4.3 (still Jelly Bean) is becoming available. It will be introduced formally in a week or so. The Nexus 7 (tablet) will probably be released that day too.

There has been no word about Nexus 4 (phone) going back to LTE. But there are already methods to converting the phone for LTE use for T-Mobile members wanting to take advantage of the new LTE (4G data) network being introduced all over the USA this year. It is operational in Portland and Honolulu, for example.

I’ll keep you posted.
