Samsung has lifted the lid off two new smartwatches at Mobile World Congress. The Gear 2 and Gear 2 Neo have both ditched the Android operating system of the original Gear, instead opting for Samsung's own Tizen software. hmmmmm.. reviews.cnet.com/2300-13970_7-10019621.htmlAll part of Samsung's plan to get away from Android and build their own Apple-like ecosystem. Easier to start on a smartwatch, since they don't need to navigate the carrier minefield. Recall, as the dumb bunny media reports never do, that Tizen phones can easily accommodate Android apps by running OpenMobile Application Compatibility Layer (ACL). Anyway, hopefully, Tizen somehow leads to thermonuclear war between Google and Samsung.

I remember Steve's quote about going thermonuclear war on Google: Better those two miscreants launch missiles at each other.
