Samsung’s Galaxy Nexus, the first phone to run Android Ice Cream Sandwich, will be available in the U.S. starting Thursday from Verizon. The 4G LTE phone sells for $299.99 with a two-year plan.

Although Verizon hadn’t previously set a fixed date for the U.S. arrival of the Galaxy Nexus, a report suggests the launch was held up due to Google Wallet
