Android 4.0.4 for the GSM version of the Nexus S was officially released by Google last week in an OTA update, but left the Sprint (WiMax) version out of the loop. Today, however, Android 4.0.4 for the Sprint Nexus S has been leaked and can be installed by the adventurous.

Sprint today confirmed its plans to stop creating devices that support WiMax and continue to focus on rolling out their 4G LTE network. As you may remember, Sprint was one of the first carriers to offer 4G, with the help of WiMax.

Announced at CES 2012 in January, Verizon’s Jetpack MiFi 4620L is finally launching on April 12th, Verizon announced today.

If you don’t yet have a Verizon LTE enable iPad, this will be a nice way to get Verizon’s blazing fast 4G speeds on all of your devices.
