"Google has some good news for those of you outside the US: Chromecast is coming to &amp;quot;many more countries&amp;quot; in the next few weeks.\u00A0The announcement came from an SXSW keynote by Sundar Pichai, the company's SVP of Androids, Apps and Chrome.\r\n\r\nLast month, reports emerged that Chromecast would soon arrive in the\u00A0UK\u00A0and\u00A0Australia.\u00A0Google\u00A0first released\u00A0the HDMI dongle last July, before opening the device up to developers with an SDK in February.\r\n\r\nWhile Pichai wouldn't reveal specific sales figures for the Chromecast, he did note that customers have bought &amp;quot;millions&amp;quot; of units and sales continue to grow rapidly.\r\n\r\nAt $35, Chromecast is a phenomenal deal, but new features and services have come to it slowly over the past few months. Now that the device has an SDK and is expanding internationally, we can hopefully expect a quicker pace for improvements to the platform.\r\n\r\nPichai also revealed\u00A0during his talk that an Android SDK for wearable devices is coming in two weeks' time.\r\n\r\nYou can keep up with all of our SXSW coverage on our event page.\r\n\r\nImage credit: Josh Edelson/AFP/Getty Images"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
