Been there, done that. A long time ago, on a product far, far away...
The project manager, "Steve", insisted that we add a checkbox that would have us issue an "Are you sure?" prompt for a certain action. Since this action was supposed to be used to stop the equipment in the event of a failure, we thought this was stupid. Since he was the project manager we had to do it anyway.
I added a little Easter egg to the application. If the machine name was anything other than StevesPC, the label on the checkbox was something like "Confirm fast stop". If the machine name was StevesPC, the label was "Steve mode".

I would appreciate having a few basic functions at hand, without having the foul stench of Kies polluting my PC and office space. Things like e.g. alert me when the phone rings, let me type an SMS on a real keyboard, and then sync contacts. The last one I only need at a push.

ES File Explorer[^] is an app that you can use to transfer files, directories, etc over the LAN or to the Cloud, etc.
Someone else mentioned AirDroid, and that works very nicely too... especially for the other stuff you want to do.

I much preferred 2001 though, watching it now, does seem awfully long and drawn out. The original short story and the book were better.

The films of the last two books fell through, but SyFy is allegedly* producing a mini-series of 3001 to be aired this year.
On November 3, 2014, it was reported that Syfy had ordered a mini-series adaptation of 3001: The Final Odyssey into production for broadcast in 2015. The mini-series will be executive-produced by Ridley Scott, David W. Zucker and Stuart Beattie; the latter will also be the primary scriptwriter. The estates of both Clarke and 2001: A Space Odyssey director Stanley Kubrick were reported as having "offered their full support", but the extent of their involvement is not known at this time.

Do Martians see a bluer day sky than ours?
Seems so, their sunset itself being blue, they daytime may be bluer.
