I've got two xv6700's sitting right here. One is mine which has the following:

Radio: 1.41.00
PRL 50855
PRI 1.12_002


The other unit is for someone else that I am setting up for them:
Radio: 1.41.00
PRL 50722 (no service currently to update roaming)
PRI 1.14_002

So apparently this Verizon phone has a higher PRI version than mine or anyone elses. Anybody have any ideas? I did at first flash the phone with the UT Starcom official 2.2 AKU which did include the PPST.exe in the update.

I just checked the PPST file and the cab file included was 1.12. So this phone must have had it from somewhere else.

Verizon doesn't offer a newer PRI than 1.12_002, meaning that their latest ROM release (from April) only includes the update to 1.12_002. The only phones that would come with anything newer thant that would be ones that shipped with it.

In my experience, PRI updates are mostly meaningless. The only exception to that was on the Sprint model where Sprint accidentally turned DDTM off in a particular update (meaning incoming calls would not interrupt an active EV-DO data session). People complained so they had to release a PRI update to fix it.

Anyway PRI stands for Product Release Instructions and in the CDMA world is a way for the manufacturer to apply carrier-specific customizations to the CDMA radio nvm. It is a helpful standard to identify what "set" of configuration settings a particular handset is running with.

But it is extremely carrier-specific, so please don't try to apply a PRI from any other carrier or one you just find floating out there on the net.
