Breaking down Amazon’s mega dropdown - Ben Kamens: "At every position of the cursor you can picture a triangle between the current mouse position and the upper and lower right corners of the dropdown menu.

As long as the cursor stays within that blue triangle the current submenu will stay open. It doesn’t matter if the cursor hovers over “Appstore for Android” momentarily — the user is probably heading toward “Learn more about Cloud Drive.”
