they all must be the same size and probably have the same hardware buttons in the same spots.
But the SG2 was different where as the mic was slightly off compared between the to phones unlocked and AT&T
Anyone know for sure because I'm trying to get a case and screen protector
or do we have to wait and see ?

there is so much about this thread that confuses me.
I have not heard of a third Nexiii model. Samsung/Google pretty much confirmed it would only be one GSM (AT&T + TMO included) for the world and one LTE/CDMA model for Verizon.
Also, how would the LTE version be thinner and shorter than the GSM version, considering the massive LTE radio inside it (and increased storage..?).
Lastly, The thread said it was posted 6 hours after the current time. .but I got that cleared up after I logged in .. was quite a mindf*** at first lol.

well the specs for the 2 CDMA phones are from GSM arena
WIKI has the unlocked Samsung Galaxy Nexus I9250 GSM specs
Samsung themselves said at the ICS event in Hong Kong that the GSM version was going to be slightly thinner. So the specs you're finding can't be correct.
Edit: I'll just leave this here. http://www.engadget.com/2011/10/19/samsung-the-lte-version-of-the-galaxy-nexus-will-be-a-little/
Logically, the GSM version has to be thinner than the LTE.

I don't know how you got from gsmarena that there are three Galaxy Nexus models. gsmarena clearly tells you there are two, the GSM/HSPA+ model, and the I515 model that's specific to Verizon's CDMA/LTE network.
The GSM/HSPA+ model has a 1750mAh battery, weighs 135g, and has dimensions 135.5 x 67.9 x 8.9 mm.
The CDMA/LTE model is rumored to have a 1850mAh battery, is rumored to weigh 141g, and is rumored to have dimensions 135.5mm x 67.9mm x 9.34mm.

Read the descriptions of both phones their are 2 different descriptions on the 2 phones
1- Galaxy Nexus I515
2- Galaxy Nexus
OK I made a mistake it shows it's a GSM there but when I was reading the dimensions I didn't look at the GSM only LTE on both phones and they both show the same size on both phones, I wasn't looking for any CDMA or GSM only dimensions

One of them is the CDMA/LTE model, the other is the GSM/HSPA+ model. Where are you getting a third model?

I corrected it my my previous post because I was looking at dimensions and not looking for networks it would be on, and I seen LTE on both and just took it for granted it was another CDMA phone out there but my only interest was dimensions
Anyway they have to have that wrong because of the 2 phones hardware

Yes, gsmarena has it wrong for the CDMA/LTE model. Read my post for what's rumored to be the specs of that model.

OK, so if the math is right the GSM is 0.35 of an inch
and the CDMA would be 0.37 of an inch
So the SCH-I515 CDMA verizon version case's should fit if all hardware line up correctly !

Perhaps, if the rumored dimensions of the CDMA version are correct. However, that's unconfirmed at this point, it's only been reported on several Chinese websites, nowhere else.
The only way that I could see a third model is if it incorporates both HSPA+ and LTE together and launch on AT&T's new network. Of course, that means that it will probably be released much later to fully utilize AT&T's 4G network...
Wondering if I should get a Galaxy Nexus 4G LTE from America since I want the the 32GB storage but the GSM version does not have 32GB only 16GB.
So does the 4G Galaxy Nexus work in Australia or should I wait for the Samsung Galaxy S III - Considering the Galaxy S range is usually a major step up from the Nexus before it i.e. Nexus S to the Galaxy S II. I am strongly considering it if I can't use a 4G phone in Australia and they are not going make a GSM version with 32GB storage.
Your thoughts please...
No it doesn't.

no;
1: LTE bands may not be compatiable
2. the VZW version uses CDMA; not GSM for voice/3G
3. the LTE is for data only on the GNexus; there are currently no Voice over LTE deployed that I know of yet
Like others above me have said no it will not work in Australia or any other country outside of the USA, the LTE is CDMA only, and for Verizon USA only , it might work outside USA on roaming but that's it, even some accessories might have issues like a case because the LTE is a bit thicker due to having a larger battery for the LTE.
I was under the impression that there is only two versions of the galaxy nexus available: LTE and HSDPA. Telus and Rogers recently released their own devices and I was expecting to be all the same, but sources say that it's different. Telus galaxy nexus is not a penta, but quad and has the size of the nexus s.
Surely that is a typo?
Yes it is a typo

There are two physical variations:
HSPA/GSM Pentaband - Smaller thickness and battery (1750)
LTE/CDMA - Thicker and 1850 mah battery
There are, however, multiple different software variations. Some phones shipped with Google supported OS (yakju) and some with a Samsung variant (yakju**)
Aside from the thickness on LTE, all SGN phones are the same shape.
Just ordered a Galaxy,then saw the Verizon release about the Razr getting a software upgrade for global capabilities. Called Verizon and was told no such upgrade possible/planned for Galaxy, so I cancelled order for Galaxy..... Very disappointed Galaxy cannot be made global capable! I travel overseas a lot and global capabilities feature of the Razr is a compelling reason to pick that phone, even though I like the Galaxy better. Is there any way to get global capability on Galaxy?
Ditch Verizon and get a GSM galaxy nexus.

Because the Verizon galaxy nexus has no GSM radio.
The razr has GSM and CDMA radios.
Like the poster above me said, ditch Verizon and buy an.unlocked GSM gnex from the google play store. Problem sorted.
