true very true. i fell no problems with developer communities, I just wish that Samsung stuck with their ideals and having ONE version of touchwiz and no other, no if's ands, or buts about it! even if it means no hardware keyboard on a galaxy s device, even if it means no LED flash. here's why, cuz with the Epic doing this one separate touchwiz, you'll have to have developers JUST for the Epic, whereas with all the same software you could have ONE big group of developers working on this, instead of having the big group for everyone else and the leftovers so to speak working on the Epic.

This probably wont be the case because all the phones are probably all the running the same Touchwiz 3.0
The only difference with the Epic is Samsung probably disabled some features that didnt work too well on the Epic.
It is not that the Epic is running a totally different OS or version of Touchwiz. It is just some features are disabled and could probably be turned on by developers easily if they had the Epic.
Even with that said the Epic seems to have a bigger buzz than both the Galaxy S phones already out so I doubt it would getting leftovers since it will probably outsell the first 2 Galaxy S phones easily.
