I don't think asus would update us with 4.2.2 but i guess they would update us with 4.2.1 and may be they would never give us 4.2.2. We never had 4.0.4 when we were on ice cream sandwich, we only had 4.0.3. And on 4.1, i don't think they'll ever give a 4.1.2 update but they would update it directly to 4.2 and again some line of updates but i don't think they would ever update 4.1.1 to 4.1.2 or 4.2.1 to 4.2.2.

Lol, i was confused also. And i wonder if first number should not be 4.1.2 instead of of 4.2.2.

Nb : i'm 4.2.8 years old (42 years and 8 months) that could explain my confusion with my old brain

Oops! Sorry for that guys but I guess you understood what it was. I just wanted to say asus just updated the device only with the first version of any major firmwares.
It would be a direct jump from 4.1.1 to 4.2.

4.2 is pretty iffy firmware. A lot of devices running it 3rd party have issues with it. Heck, even the three devices running it officially have some issues. I think a lot of manufacturers are waiting till Google gets some things ironed out before adapting to it.

CM10.1 is as close as you can get to native without it coming directly from Asus, and even there some things don't work right (e.g. very strange issues with multiple users etc)

I think that is what is going to happen. 4.2 seems to be full of bugs and even new phones are still being released with 4.1.

I'm not sure what bugs you are referring to - I run 4.2 on my N7 and it runs perfectly... Any particular examples?

Thanks.
