Yesterday, Google officially announced the expanding availability of its Play Books service to New Zealand and an additional 8 new countries across Asia. This expansion bumps the total number of supported countries up to 36.

Google is expected to release its Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean update later this month, making performance and stability improvements that will first arrive on the Nexus 4, the Nexus 7, the Nexus 10, and the Samsung Galaxy Nexus. It’s likely to be the last Jelly Bean update Google releases before announcing Android 5.0 Key Lime Pie in May.
