The Nexus hardware does support GW. It's Verizon that doesn't allow it. Coincidentally, Verizon is test launching the competing ISIS Wallet, which also is not (yet?) compatible with the Nexus either.

I know people who are using GW on their VZW galaxy Nexus and works beautifully.  I was wondering why the official OS does not support it.

Actually Ann, I tried this w/ that posted link to mediafire and others....I can't run it, it keeps wanting to update then I get the message "Your device isn't compatible w/ this version.....it worked fine for a while.  Am I the only one that is blocked from using it?

Are you talking about trying to download the APK file? I guess I don't understand what you are asking here?

Sorry, I thought I was clear....I downloaded the apk, but as soon as it's installed I get the message that Goggle no longer supports this version and end up opening up the app in google play.   The use of google wallet is blocked on my phone as an updated is insisted upon then I'm denied the update as my device isn't compatible.  I even selected not to auto update....it made no difference.  I someone has a workaround, I'd appreciate the info.

I guess Isis was released to a few cities for a test run yesterday

There were a few threads in here and elsewhere  where people had been able to install Wallet through a workaround and then later an update broke their ability to use the application. What you describe sounds like those situations of the others. I don't use and see no reason to Wallet myself. I find the idea has potential for the future so I try to follow the industry news about it.
