    any way to sync with icloud canlendars?

    You should end up with an iCloud specific calendar in addition to your local 8.1 one. At least it does for me using the iCloud control panel that you can download from Apple. With that you can sync your bookmarks and pictures also if you want. Might be worth a try.

    Is there no cover minus the typing part?

    A cover that magnetically attached to where the type cover attaches would be ok I'm sure. It's not like it would have the same functionality, and wouldn't have the electrical contacts of course. Folded over it would just cover the screen. I don't really think a full cover that covers the back...

    Ruined my night

    Would you still have to install and setup the desktop programs? Would this setup everything or only the metro side and it's apps? Hoping for all but not counting on it.

    SP2 vs SP3

    jnjroach, thanks for the feedback on this. That's encouraging. Those programs are a MUST for me in my work and the SP3 would be unsuitable if it couldn't run them properly.

    Mini display port adaptors

    I have an Apple mini display port to VGA adaptor and an Apple mini display port to DVI adaptor. Can anyone confirm that these will work on the SP3.
