Android

Along with a slew of new Nexus devices, Google has just announced Android 4.2, a new flavor of Jellybean. While it doesn’t get a new name of its one, it does get quite a few neat new features. Here’s a rundown. Gesture Typing: The new version of Android will include a new keyboard feature that allows for swipey-style typing, much like Swype, and the upcoming Flow for SwiftKey.
