Verizon unveils LTE Nexus 7 tablet for $250
A new software update also provides Verizon LTE support for cellular-enabled versions of the tablet.
Google's LTE Nexus 7 is now officially part of Verizon's network.
As of Thursday, Verizon is selling the tablet for $250 with the usual two-year contract, or $350 on a month-to-month off-contract basis. The Nexus 7 is now available online and will land in Verizon retail stores as well.
Further, current owners of the 4G LTE Nexus 7 can now officially activate it on Verizon's network courtesy of a software update that sailed forth on Wednesday. Though users were already able to "unofficially" activate the tablet, the new update comes with Verizon's blessings.
Owners of the LTE Nexus 7 faced a roadblock last September when Verizon refused to support the tablet for activation. At the time, the carrier said it had not yet certified the device for its LTE network but that it expected such certification to come shortly.
