If I had to guess I'd say early February for Kit Kat on the Verizon Moto X. Based on rollouts in the past.
Do Moto X owners already have most of what is included in Kitkat? Or is there something new for us besides the new dialer and text messaging apps?
The Moto X is already being tested with KitKat internally.
Man, you got me. It didn't happen.Links (instead of pics) or it didn't happen.
Why would Google waste resources to code 4.3 when 4.4 will be out within 2 months of the phone release?
Really? and my S3 is already being tested with 5.0. Buddy of mine that works for Samsung told me so... Smells like...
There is not evidence anywhere that moto will get any special treatment for updates. Both Google and Moto have said explicitly that they will not get the updates early and thus will be on the same time frame as everyone else. No mater how much the moto x looks stock, i can guarantee you it is not under the hood. Moto has to take the time to develope and optimize code for hardware and get all of the unique features(and carrier bloat) working.
I am afraid that anyone that is looking for updates much quicker than anything that is not a nexus or GPe device is going to be disappointed. I mean sense the moto x has a finished 4.3 build already and everything...
What version does the Moto X have right now? Don't we have 4.3?
Well Google would not waste any resources because the phone is made and coded by Motorola... not Google(which is a very odd misconception ppl are commonly having?)
If I'm not mistaken, Motorola is a Google company folks.
What I'm really curious is what kind of tinkering will Motorola do with Kitkat's expanded Touchless Controls. Is it reasonable to expect Motorola bring unique features of Touchless control feature with its Kitkat update?
What unique features of touchless control does the Nexus 5 have?

Um e.r...WHAT???
I think you misunderstood my question. I did not said that the Nexus 5 has unique touchless controls features...but has an expanded set of touchless control (like contextual cards for example)
that being said/..I am asking if do you guys think Motorola can bring some unique stuff with Kitkat's expanded touchless control functionality.
But if the Moto X gets KitKat or there's a Google Now update that includes that expanded set, the Moto X would have the Motorola features PLUS all the Google Now updates.
If kitkat is going to do away with the messaging app, how will the Moto X deal with drive assist? I guess they have to somehow port that feature to hangouts?
