My bet is that it is:
Modified framework to make PSSuite® work with 2.3.3
Load of UPDATED Verizon bloat (I'm tempted to call it something else)
Patches to stop you rooting - why do they do this?
Or maybe its an incremental 2.3.4 update...

I'm willing to bet it's just a security upgrade. It prevents us from rooting, installs ALL Verizon Apps and also remove's the Android Market and forces us to use the Verizon App Store.

Sounds like past updates I've had with other Verizon phones.

Debbie Downers. All you GSM users are jelly. It in fact is ICS I just got off the phone with a level 99 tech, he said it's already being pushed out and GSM users gotta wait til 2013 to get it. Sucks for you :p

Actually, GSM can do so much more than CDMA in terms of customizing. We should be the "jelly" ones. Hell, even the AT&T phone has a couple extra features compared to ours. They to are on 2.3.3 still though. But again with so many GSM Roms they have more than us.

AT&T is GSM, so GSM roms work 100%.

I've talked with Verizon tech support twice and what I got out of them is that the update is numbered 4.0.2.E.0.57. I am hard of hearing so I might not have heard correctly but this is the version number I was given and I cannot find anything on this version number.

It probably will come with new baseband, but wait for FTF. FreeXperia might decide to add CDMA support since there is a new baseband.
