It's just been announced at the XDA forum that TWRP is ready for the Nexus.
You know what, I'm not going to use it or Clockwork as of now. Here's why. On the Kindle you have no choice. It lacked a traditional bootloader (but oddly enough could be unlocked without a wipe) so they had to put a custom recovery on it. I don't know enough to fully understand why (can someone synopsis it?) I realized that I may lose updates (probably not) but the reward was great in getting the Google Store and it's media apps which were previously unsupported.
With the Nexus there is no reward, well not really.
1- with Google Sync I can restore my tablet from a total loss with no effort
2- I unlocked and rooted it without needing them
3- I'd lose OTA updates.
It's a no brainer for me. Keep the stock recovery, overclock it till it melts, and never look back.
However for those wanting a recovery module I like TWRP. It's easy to use and a touch screen interface beats the heck out of navigating with the volume buttons.
