Both yakju and takju is the same, there is an additional difference in takju, because its featured with Google Wallet app.

But that should be a concern, Jelly Bean yakju ROM and takju may not compatible with the Galaxy Nexus yakjuxw, usually have a compatibility issues on the radio. But from my experience flashing yakju use the Vodacom network no problem, network smoothly both data and voice.
