While reading the tech news, I crossed over several posts about the latest update of Android 4.2.2 from Google, then I checked my old Nexus 7. And yeah, there is a notification about the update, asking me to install it or not, and I clicked it yes. Now the tablet is installing the update. From my experiences in the past, it will take several minutes to complete it. This time it is around 1 to 2 minutes. Now the device is rebooting, I like the boot up animation.
In the software info, the kernel is still in 3.1.0-g05b777c, built on Nov., 29, 2012. For more details of the update, please check PCMag blog at http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2415481,00.asp
Meanwhile, the SDK Tool 21.1 is also available for developer to download and install, for the release note please check http://developer.android.com/tools/sdk/tools-notes.html, some bugs reported have been fixed, there are also some performance improvements.
Now it is almost 3 months away from annual Google I/O Conference, where the next major release of Android would be announced and available. Not sure which version number would be used. Last year before Google formally released the Jelly Bean, people were talking about the version number would be bumped to 5.0, and actually it was released as version 4.1, followed by minor releases of 4.1.1, 4.1.2, then 4.2, 4.2.1, and now 4.2.2. But definitely the code name would start with letter "K".
