While we wait ....

I never think to use multi window. The s4 had it & that seemed pointless. Note 4 makes more sense, but I've never really utilized it.

I thought they were working on multi window as part of the core OS? Or was that just a rumor?

 

Yeah. I don't travel much where I need navigation, but when I do, I prefer full screen maps. My old car (now the wife's) has satellite radio, so I listened to that. With my truck, add long as I have a good playlist, I have controls on my Bluetooth connector & watch that are just as easy as changing the station.

Not to mention I was in a bad habit for a while of accidentally shrinking apps when trying to pull down my notification shade on my Note 4 for quite a while. Still do it from time to time. Can't say I'll miss multi window, but that's my own fault for not finding ways to utilize to for my needs.

I'm old school. I don't mind switching between apps. Haha

 

I'm toying with the idea of getting just a clear silicone case, so I can still show off the aluminum while having at least protection from scrapes for the first little while of owning the device.

I think they should ship before the update goes out to older devices. As I stated in another thread, the Nexus Twitter account keeps popping up as an ad in my Twitter app telling me to be the first to get Marshmallow by pre-ordering a 5X or 6P. I've done so. I still won't be the first to have it. Other Nexus owners are already running the official build.

 

I've got the older N7. End o the line for updates there. Can't say I blame them since Lollipop has its aggravating moments on that thing, but it's kinda sad.

Meanwhile, I found out the other night that the wife hasn't accepted the latest security update on her '13 N7 when I told her that she'd have Marshmallow incoming.
