I had a similar problem. My Surface Pro worked perfectly with only a Displayport to HDMI cable for the months of Feb and March, then Microsoft did a firmware update in April which stopped the Dell from recognizing the SP. Went back and forth with MS for a few weeks, then decided to bring my SP...

I find the pen very useful. I used to go through a 50 page physical notebook a week; mainly taking notes at client meetings or taking notes on conference calls. I've saved literally pounds of notebooks over the past few months with OneNote. I bet I'll save 30 - 40 lbs of notebooks per year...

Thank you for the advice! I appreciate the time you took to understand and respond. I had an idea earlier today; I went to Best Buy with my SP, and one of my mini display port cables. They had the Dell monitor on display. I tried it with my cable, thought maybe my monitor's HDMI port was...

When plugged in to the mini display port on the SP, the Dell S2440l goes right into power saver mode. does not detect a monitor is plugged in. otherwise the screen is just blank (black). The Dell monitor works fine with my Lenovo x230s laptop when plugged into Lenovo VGA port so don't think...

Pulling my hair out; well not literally. Bought the SP a couple of months ago, love it but for whatever reason it refuses to work with my Dell S2440L monitor. I bought the monitor specifically for the SP on 3/29, worked beautifully until I did Surface Pro update (including firmware) on 4/9...

Have been using OneNote 2013 since I got my SP about 5 weeks ago. I bought Office 365 which comes with OneNote 2013. I had been burning through physical notebooks for 25 years, and am thrilled to be able to take notes on my SP. No more physical notebooks and great ability to reference notes...

Not looking to foment dissent. I simply remember the Asus and ipad specs because they are published. And I understand your point about modern devices. My point is that is that it would be reasonable for MS to publish these specs as do other mfrs; I'm sure others have wondered. Not the end of...

But - btw - I'm sure I'll sell it and get the next gen when it comes out :-). All I'm saying is that this platform is a game changer. But I do wish MS would post factual specs on the battery / charging system.

Not so sure about that. I find it the most amazing piece of technology I've seen in years. I get it. OneNote is incredible (no more physical paper notebooks - I have dozens if not hundreds of notebooks - no mas - and it recognizes my crappy handwriting), I can run Quicken (and keep a backup...

I was on with a MS rep earlier. Seems that there is no "spec" on how many time I can charge and recharge prior to experiencing significant battery degradation. On my last Asus notebook, I think it was at least 300, on the iPad I think it's 800 or 1000? Would be good information to have. Also...

Ah - I'm glad it's not just me. I have a 32gb USB 3 Corsair Survivor and for the life of me I can't get my Pro to recognize it. Worked a few times then stopped working. I was on with a Microsoft tech for half hour last week, he was stumped too. Add a device doesn't work either. I have a...
