    This isn't necessarily a good direction for Samsung, I've always felt that a lot of their sucess -particularly in the smartphone market- has been due to minimal use/modification of software.

    On mobiles Samsung wants developers to make more of the additional possibilities stemming from the S Pen and multi-window functionality.
    Well how about encouraging other companies from taking this up. I'm actually pretty surprised that Google hasn't decided to grab multi-window for a later revision of Android.

    The S-Pen is a good idea - I find it's excellent for those situations where you need just a little more precision than is possible with my fat fingers.

    My advice to Samsung - make these open SDKs - if other folks adopt them then you'll gain some competitive advantage simply by being "first amongst equals".

    Having local standard are great, but only if they don't in the way of open-/cross-platform ones.

    Career status: still enjoying my new career in DevOps, but it's keeping me busy...
