One of our tipsters has forwarded this info from Verizon, with pricing and advertising dates for the supposedly Ice Cream Sandwich-ready Galaxy Nexus and the HTC Rezound (aka HTC Vigor ). According to the leak we can expect both to sport on contract minimum advertised pricing (MAP) of $299 when they launch.
