Details on Jelly Bean for Xoom WiFi spill early, prepares to be served in the US

[![Details on Jelly Bean for Xoom WiFi spill early, prepares to be served to US variants][1] ][2]

Rumor has it that [Xoom WiFi][3] owners in the US could soon be on the receiving end of [yet another][4] software update, though this time 'round it'd be a virtual jar full of that colorful and buttery smooth [Android 4.1][5]. According to a recent changelog received by _Droid Life_, the Jelly Bean refresh will bring a number of features previously seen on [Google's Nexus 7][6] over to Moto's 10-inch slate -- some of which include an improved UI with the "smoothest version of Android," a new look for Mountain View's search, smarter overall keyboard and widgets that "work like magic." No word on when exactly we'll see the alleged build (JRO038) hit WiFi-only Xooms here in the States, but at least there's some tasteful hope for you.
