The question being is it worth the extra bucks over the LG skin I got at BB for $279?
Until someone compares the two, ....
The updates coming fast is a very quick sign. May be worth it for that in itself for whomever likes the latest version of software. No telling how long it would take for future ones on the LG skin units.

Devs at XDA are currently working on it. So if you already have the V500 model or can find one for cheaper, that might be the better way to go. I think V500 also has CM11 builds, so there's that option too.
CM is a great compromise. As long as you keep in mind that it won't ever be 100% stable (though it will get pretty close as builds for the device mature), I'd say go for it. I've even contemplated sending my GPe back and getting the other version as it can be had for significantly less here, but in the end the convenience of updates directly from Google is what made me keep it.
Sounds good.
If there's nothing in the rumour mill regarding a Nexus 8 come the new year I think this will be my first tablet.
