I previously thought that was the Nexus series, but my Galaxy Nexus isn't getting KitKat either, so even Google's own flagship phone series doesn't even get their own updates. They made some excuse about TI not being able to provide new OMAP drivers since they sold off that business...

Hmmm, that's just a lame excuse! Should take it for granted that was covered by the SLA they have with TI.

FWIW, CyanogenMod Android 4.4 runs awesome on the Galaxy Nexus. I had to give back my work hardware when I left my last company and the Galaxy Nexus was the last phone I'd personally bought. Put 4.4 on it and I have been happy as a clam. I was going to buy a Moto X or a Nexus 5, but I'm completely satisfied with the perf of this--and the battery life is way better than any Android phone I've owned since.
