That LG is Definitely NOT the Next Nexus

I was reading this post, and a handful of people are noticing details that aren't particularly nexus-esque.

• LG logo at boot, nexus devices only have the Google logo at boot
• "with Google" not just "Google" on the back
• Headphone jack on the top, google keeps putting it at the bottom because its better there.
• No Pogo pins, though google might be moving away from them, they haven't been super enthusiastic in their accessory support

So besides the fact that LG can't make a nexus because they can't make a compelling product, I'm confident that this is just another generic LG phone, probably a carrier-specific version. Have you noticed anything fishy?
