Yeah I never understood the reasoning behind this. How often do I hit the menu key? How often do I need the Multitask key? I'd say menu is alot more important at least for my use.

Samsung has two choices with older devices that have the "menu" graphic rather than the newer "apps" graphic introduced for the first time on the four newly announced tablets.
They can:
And there's no point arguing which direction Samsung will go as either is possible and no one here (including me) knows what Samsung's thinking. I do think something's up in that when talking about their 2014 premium tablet line there's not been one mention of the N10.1-14 and how it fits in their product strategy. If it was going to carry on as the "Note 10.1 2014 Edition" and receive 4.4/Magazine UX you'd think they would have said something. In PR/Marketing what's not said is sometimes more telling than what is.
- Be purists and leave newer devices without the proper graphic (SGS4, N3, N10.1-14) on the older UI but update the OS to 4.4.
- Ignore the mislabeled graphic and treat older devices the same as newer devices and update them to 4.4/Magazine UX.
This is a weird one. The GSM Arena hands on video (posted yesterday 6th Feb) shows the Note Pro 12.2 with a menu button and not multitasking.
It also has the old style notification tab.
The other unboxing video on youtube has the Multitasking button and the newer looking notification pull down.
Are the wifi and LTE variants different?
That means landscape is the default orientation and the hardware keys are placed along one of the long sides.
Those are the old Menu, Home, Back keys, even though Samsung is already moving to App Switcher, Home, Back on some of its recent devices.
I just picked up the wifi model from best buy (us) and it has the app switcher button.

Best buy website just switched over and said "coming soon". How many did they have in store?
I had pre-ordered mine inside of the best buy store a week ago and they told me that there were about a dozen left in their store when i went in to pick it up.
