Android updates for Nexus bought from Amazon Is there any difference in terms of either phone features, software versions or time to get new updates if I bought the Galaxy Nexus from Amazon instead of waiting for it to be sold direct from Google in the UK?

Any reasons I should wait?
Galaxy Nexus goes by variants such as yakju, yakjuxw, and takju. However yakju and takju will receive updates directly from Google. While the rest will be receiving from Samsung or probably network provider.

The difference between yakju and takju is that takju has Google wallet while yakju does not. Takju can only be purchased from Play Store.

I assume the one being sold directly from Google in the UK is the same one offered at Play Store which runs takju while the one on Amazon runs yakju.

In term of phone hardware they are exactly the same.
