I feel like consumers are clamoring for an Android phone that runs stock Jelly Bean. The Nexus 7 shipped with stock Android 4.1 and it has been very successful in the tablet market.

I agree, and I have liked the nexus line myself for exactly that reason. But I think it's dumb to say consumers won't put up with crapware, because they do.

indeed, reportedly Google sold about a million Nexus 7s in Q3 when it was available in only some markets http://www.slashgear.com/google-said-to-have-sold-up-to-1m-n...

In comparison, Amazon sold 5 million Kindle Fires from last year to end of August.
