Which ppa for kde?

The updates PPA currently has KDE 4.7.3. It's a staging PPA for packages that are intended to go into the main updates repo at some point. If you want to get the next KDE release right away this is the one to enable, but bear in mind you're basically beta-testing if you install from there. If you wait until the packages make it into main updates then there's a chance that a few bugs will have been fixed.

The backports PPA is generally used for KDE point releases backported from the next Kubuntu release, so it's probably empty at the moment.
