Think I'll wait until the OTA to put it on my Galaxy Nexus. Can't see a definitive list of which changes this brings to the Galaxy Nexus, is there one anywhere? I'm hoping it brings home screen rotation to the phone as well as the Nexus 7!

I would hope it would seen as the GalNex already has landscape mode for the homescreen but only works in the car dock :S - not sure why its not available by default.

I did see this tho "Factory Images "takju" for Galaxy Nexus "maguro" (GSM/HSPA+) (with Google Wallet)"
Does this mean we may finally see official GWallet support in the UK?

Doubt it... my Galaxy Nexus already has the magazines app, but there's no Google Magazines in the UK. Suspect that as it's the Nexus they have one central image with all the apps. They just don't work if you're outside of the US.
