Actully it isn't, S Pen is based on Wacom's digitizer system that was around way before S Pen

Only thing that is new about it fact that they interacted Wacom digitizer in to the screen as said above
I don't think Wacom designed the S Pen apps or interface for Samsung. I would include all of that as a part of the S Pen technology, not just the Wacom digitizer. I also don't believe that Wacom has itself introduced the digitizer technology to the mass smartphone market, so Samsung is doing something unique in its introduction. Moreover, stylus haven't been popular with smart phones for about 5 years or so. A stylus is seen as a part of yesterday's smart phones ala Palm Treo. If Samsung were to release the S4 with the S Pen, that would all change. And others would soon follow.
