I assume it will show up for the GSM versions of Galaxy Note 2 first. Verizon Galaxy Note 2 will no doubt be the last to get it... just wondering how late... sometime between Thanksgiving and Christmas?

So much assumption.
 
We haven't gotten 4.1.2 yet and your already talking about 5.0?!

Knowing Verizon they will push it out as soon as the note 8 is released.

Like most carrier updates expect 6-8 month after the first nexus gets it. So spring 2014

I really find it funny that people are worried about upgrades on a not even 4 month old device

The highlighted part is not an assumption. Come on we've all been on this ride before and know how it's going to go down :P Even with 4.1.2, all the other carriers received it already making Verizon the last to get it. The kicker? We STILL haven't received it yet.

Once Verizon pulls my Unlimited Data from my contracts cold dead hands, thats when they can get the middle finger from me and a termination of my account. Probably off to Tmobile or something.

LOL uh "probably" 2014?!
 
the Verizon Galaxy Nexus will most likely receive Android 5.0 first, right?

Highly unlikely! I didn't mean to burst your bubble with my earlier comment. Members here have been with Verizon for an extended period of time to know from past experience. I love Verizon for the signal strength (voice and data) but when it comes to O/S upgrades they are painfully slow. The VZ GN is in it's twilight years and will probably not see another official update other than today's announced 4.2.2 The phone was introduced on Verizon way back in Dec 2011.

The Note III (if there will be one) will probably have 5.0 before the VZ Note II does next year.

Probably a conservative guess. Jelly bean was announced in june 2012. The Verizon gs3 got jb in December. We may see it by end of the year,but most likely sometime early next year.

Btw, the worse I have seen for a high end device was the thunderbolt which finally got ics, probably 18 months after release

Yes but the thunderbolt was released with 2.2. ICS on the thunderbolt was probably never planned for in its early stages.

I would start thinking about getting up to 4.2.2 first before jumping to any newer (unreleased/unconfirmed) OS at this point.
 
This is a serious question? Even if a new OS is announced during Google's conference there's no guarantee of an exact date. It will be a very, very long time. Ask this again in 6 months and you'll still be waiting.
 
LOL. We haven't even been updated to 4.2 yet. If you want a device to get upgrades on time get the nexus 4.
