Verizon + Jelly Bean = Marriage Ceremony Tomorrow

Verizon pushing Jelly Bean update to Samsung Galaxy S III tomorrow




You are cordially invited to the ceremony of Verizon (Groom) and Jelly Bean (Wife) for it will be the day where a momentous occasion will take place. Verizon has finally joined the ranks of Sprint, T-Mobile and AT&T as they are updating their Galaxy S III to Jelly Bean the operating software we've been raving about all semester. Updates such as Google Now which as we said previously will go toe to toe with Siri, will be find tomorrow on Big Red's network. What took so long? Many speculate Big Red (Verizon) wanted to waited it out and make sure that all of its consumers experience something that was tried on other networks before making the update available for download to its own consumers.

Funny how most of Apple consumers enjoy updates to their software simultaneously regardless of carriers, perhaps Google can learn from them when delivering software updates, for it is the only benefit that its lacking; speedy arrival.

In addition here is a tidbit from Engadget.com a source that has confirmed the update "Verizon's support page claims that the new upgrade is only 62MB in total size. This seems to be quite hard to believe, given the fact that Jelly Bean on other Galaxy S III variants has ranged in size from 275MB (Sprint) to 740MB (AT&T), but perhaps Big Red cooked up a little extra magic to make the long wait even more worthwhile." It helps to know this as memory is a big concern in the smartphone department and updates can considerably alter the memory that the phone has.
