    Not now. I have the recently released Galaxy Note 8.0 and it is not shown as an app that has incorporated Samsung's Multi Window functionality (available apps show when you edit the Multi Window task bar).

    I posted here as a wish list item recently with a link to the Samsung SDK that provides code and documentation to support incorporating their Multi Window functionality in Android apps.

    For Logos reading it is the perfect size. It replaces my full size iPad (original first version) for the most part.

    Very fast, though likely about the same as your Note 10 (both  have 2GB RAM, quad core CPU - the Note 8 has has a little faster CPU).

    Light and easy to hold.

    Most of it you should know well. Very little different than Note 10 and Note 2.

    Only available in USA with WiFi, but I did not want another data plan device, so the lack of 3G/4G doesn't bother me. I tether to my Note phone when I need/want the 3G/4G/4G-LTE connectivity, which is not very often.

    Battery life is very very good, far better than my Note phone.

    Downside is only available with 16GB space right now. Versions with 32GB and 64GB are rumored but unconfirmed. I decided if I need to use the external SD card for Logos books then I'll root the tablet in order to create junction link to external SD card. But I don't plan to put excessive resources on it like I do with the iPad, so the issue may not come up. In fact I plan to keep theiPAd around for disconnected access to a larger library should need it. I've heard rumors that the next version of Android, Key Lime Pie (KLP), may support such redirections, or provide better APIs and security enhancements to enable developers to use the external card (I believe security changes that were introduced with Android Ice Cream Sandwich [4.0] created the limitations on apps using external cards for storage, but I could be wrong too). But that is only a rumor. Our devices, by the way, are slated to get updates to KLP shortly after it is released. Release is anticipated for May 2013 at the next Google Developers conference.
