Where is my 4.0.3?

I wouldn't think Amazon would take that as a reason for an exchange as its not a manufacturer defect or problem, just the updates are released by Samsung instead of Google

Pretty much you gotta unlock the bootloader and root the device:
How To Unlock Galaxy Nexus Bootloader (or you can wait a week or so, whenever Wug's Galaxy Nexus Root Toolkit releases for the GSM versions.)

Download the YAKJU Stock ROM Image from: Factory Images for Nexus Devices - Google Support for Nexus Phones and Flagship Devices - Google Code

Rename it to update.zip
Copy it to /cache of the internal storage
Power off the device, hold Volume Up & Down and Power to reboot into the bootloader
Select "recovery" then hit the power button
Once the warning triangle appears, hold the power button and hit volume up
Select "apply update from /sdcard" and choose the update.zip
Once the process is finished, simply choose "reboot system now"

*Note: Make sure you select the correct device ROM. Also remember when you unlock the bootloader it will wipe your device so make sure you backup your data. There is always a risk of bricking your phone especially if you haven't done it before. Good luck hope this helps

I saw a YouTube demonstration, and it said that the bootloader doesn't have to be unlocked. He was flashing via Odin, though.
 
Hopefully, since there are no Bell apps or branding on the phone, there won't be any delays beyond the ones imposed by Samsung. If other non-yakju phones get upgraded before our Bell phones do, then I'm flashing a yakju build. Until that happens, I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt.

I never realized how much I appreciated being the first to receive updates and always being on the latest version with my N1. I was expecting the same situation with the GN, and I'm disappointed that it isn't the case.

Where is /cache in internal storage?
 
Hi,

FYI: I just got a 4.0.2 OTA update. Don't know what is in it but phones still working :-)
