2nd Gen Nexus 7After a couple of days with solid proof  that Verizon was preparing to offer the 2013 Nexus 7 LTE version with full certification for its network, the carrier has now made it official with a release set for this Thursday, February 14th. The 32GB model will be priced at $349.99 identically to the version sold on Google Play.

The Nexus 7 will also be available on a two-year contract for $250, though only for a limited time. For those that have already purchased a tablet from last year, Google will be pushing out an update to enable full compatibility with the LTE network this week and the tablet will only cost $10 to add on to any Share Everything plan.
