    Wow Google, do you even Nexus anymore?
    Considering the nexus 5 and 7 had it since June for people to toy with, I don't see the big deal. People in the US are going to be waiting months for their carrier branded OTA's anyway.

    No device has gotten an official OTA yet, I don't understand the reasoning for pitchforks you see some people bringing out. Google never said "you'll have it by X date"

    After KitKat ended up being more disappointment for many (except for those lucky few who had a Nexus 5) and being mostly incremental overall, and being there has been no major visual or big update to Android since Jelly Bean, i don't blame most of us for being a bit impatient! especially as each Google app after another gets the Material treatment, it only makes us want it even more!

    Googlers have mentioned this is the largest update androids ever had.

    The changelog shows :eek:
