I want to get the latest updates for Node (evented I/O for v8 javascript).

I already have installed Node using:

sudo apt-get install -y python-software-properties python g++ make
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:chris-lea/node.js -y
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nodejs -y

How can I get the latest updates? Maybe using a PPA for development version?

You have added the stable node.js PPA; for the development version you'll want to use this PPA:

https://launchpad.net/~chris-lea/+archive/node.js-devel

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:chris-lea/node.js-devel -y
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nodejs -y

You'll also likely want to remove the first PPA you added:
