Tizen and webOS battle it out for TV sets at CES 2015
There aren't many second acts in technology, but Samsung's Tizen and LG's webOS are fighting for one, starting at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas this week. Both operating systems will be featured in new TVs by the two top competitors in the space, Samsung and LG Electronics.Tizen is Samsung's effort to break away from its dependency on Google's Android OS. While Android is free and Google puts a lot of R&D into it, the license requires every licensee to offer the same apps. Samsung is trying to sell $600 phones, and now Xiaomi has come along with Android phones at a quarter of the price and with the exact same look, feel, and apps.

So I gave up.Thankfully, you don't need to carry a keychain-based USB drive anymore.
