LTE?

If the Nexus 7 can have LTE for 349.99 then why couldn't the Nexus 4 have LTE for 349.99?

It did, just not officially. I use LTE on my N4 everyday. The problem was that it wasn't certified by the FCC for LTE. It also came out the better part of a year ago. The fact that the new N7 includes huge LTE support bodes well for the next Nexus phone.

The next Nexus is going to have to have LTE.

I have always heard that there were licenses involved in LTE as well as CDMA. When I heard that Google had completed it's acquisition of Motorola the first thing I thought was that this might take care of the licenses issue. After all Moto seems to be able to make phones with LTE even on Verizon. So I am hoping that the next Nexus phone has LTE. It may not have CDMA so Verizon may be out but at least it may have LTE and if so I will move from Verizon to AT&T.

Not only that, but Moto now has sole rights to use the "Droid" branding with Verizon, making Verizon's sort of flagship phones all Motorola models.

Not totally true, the Droid Incredible was HTC.

It is totally true that Motorola NOW has sole rights to the "Droid" branding. It begins with their new lineup that just launched.
