Samsung released a new version of its S Pen SDK to make it compatible with new functions of the Galaxy Note II. In that sense, developers will be able to make apps that interact with the S Pen even when a user hovers the S Pen over the screen — so called Air View feature.
In addition, app makers can also take advantage of the feature that allows launching of pre-defined apps when the S Pen or Earphone is plugged or unplugged and add new capabilities to their creative apps.
If you’re into making apps for the Galaxy Note devices (including the 10.1-inch model), you’ll want to download the new SDK. It’s available from here.

Dusan Belic
Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do.
In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application.
Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
