While yes it is spec'd with a lower amount of RAM it is not clear at this time whether it is physically less than the sprint or att editions or if it is how verizon is choosing to report it.

If this was the case though, I must say I fail to understand the logic of it.
That being said I could be way off, but that was my impression so far.
I do remember reading on boygeniusreport.com that the processors are essentially the same, one being a revision that avoids Broadcom patent infringement. There has not been any underclocking as was initially speculated.
“Measuring 21.5 inches each, with 1920 x 1080 resolution, 1,000:1 contrast ratio, and optical multitouch technology under their chunky bezels, these two models represent the biggest mainstream push for touchscreen computing yet.”
