The U.S. Patent & Trademark Office recently published a patent application from Samsung that reveals a possible future design twist to their Galaxy Note Pen. According to the filing, Galaxy Note users will be able to pull the Samsung pen halfway out of its integrated holder and simply bend and lock it into position so that it doubles as a stand as noted in the patent figure above.
