From within the menu 'about the phone' at the bottom of settings menu. You'll find system update there.
Of course this will only work if JB is officially released in your area/provider.

You should add more info about your phone. what are you in now? ICS 4.0.4? also your is jakju or what?

Just root.
You're missing half the point of the Nexus IMO.

+1 with that...

You don't even need to root, unlock your bootloader, fastboot a factory image and you are done (This will wipe EVERYTHING including your SD card though)
All the info you need is in the guides links in the stickies, there even stickies on how to convert to the "fast update" train of the google updated versions.

HOW CAN I TELL WHICH FIRMWARE I HAVE ON MY DEVICE
Using any file manager app, go into your /system folder and open the file called "build.prop". Find the line that starts with ro.product.name. Whatever comes after the equals sign (=), that's the firmware you have.

Those are scripts used when compiling AOSP. I'm pretty sure there are no radios there.

From my understanding, Bigxie version is this with root and deoxed, so might as well get that anyway.
Actually I don't believe this thread belongs in the development section.
The value here is for someone like me who had the sdcard0 bug every time I flashed from 4.0.4. With this, I can wipe the entire device and start fresh with 4.1.1. We no longer have to roll back to ICS to "factory reset" our phones.
how can you install one of these? I am just used to the usual CWM flashing...

Read the post 4 posts above. You have to build the code into a .zip. He even pasted the link.
I will make a flash able zip in a few hours.

No and yes. In theory they should be the same but things can get weird with ota's some times. The best is a factory image base not a ota. So you will see most dev's updating their bases to this in the coming days. If he posts a zip it will be in the correct place in the Dev section. Also if he posts a rooted deodexed zip many people will thank him for it.

No. Just backup what's important on your computer and when your done and settled restore it.

You nailed it. I'm not willing to sacrifice security, and stock JB gives me everything I need. XDA is a great resource to learn about Android and see what's coming, which is why I'm here.

Most of the apps have already been pulled and if you're so impatient that you can't wait ~1-2 weeks for AOSP to push then please dig for yourself.

What security are you worried about ? I find it really hard to get malware or brick the phone. And im one of those reckless kind who downloads first. Ask questions later. Ive never gotten virus or anything, bricked once when trying somthin new. But data still remsins. If security is a big issue. Just root and dont download anythng not frm xda. Youll b good

Some of us have reasons/requirements for not rooting. The decision isn't wrong either way; it's how you use your device.
