    SP4 may have NO Ports, Zero, None.

    I am using my Surface Pro 3 as a laptop replacement when I travel to do workshops. I use adapters for HDMI and VGA to connect the miniPort to the display systems. With no ports, how would I connect to projectors and large monitors to display my presentations?

    Pen Useful?

    I no longer carry a notepad and pen either. I take notes on my Galaxy Note 3. My typing is faster than my writing. Good point about people thinking you aren't paying attention though. My doctor looked odd at me when I first pulled out my smart phone. When I sit down for a meeting, I tell people...

    Decent Power Retention

    Did my first speaking presentation with my new Surface Pro 3. Arrived on site and realized I had forgotten the power supply for the tablet. I have a checklist for making sure I have all my equipment when I speak, but I hadn't been feeling well, so I didn't use the checklist as usual. I had...

    Mind Mapping App

    I7, 12GB Ram, hard drive. Just upgraded to latest version so it seems to upload quicker now. And did upload well on the Surface Pro 3 as well.

    Mind Mapping App

    Thanks for the suggestion of Mind8. I had avoided it because the ratings weren't that great on it. I did install Xmind and it actually seems to work quite well so perhaps I will stick with it for a while.

    Pen Useful?

    I have had 2 Galaxy Notes (original and Note 3) that had built in pens. They were cool to show to other people but I never used them other than that for two reasons. Firstly my handwriting is atrocious. I am a fast typist so keyboards have always worked better for me. And I am not really...

    Mind Mapping App

    Anyone using a Mind Mapping App they like on the Surface Pro? On my desktop, I use 2 - Xmind for my own brainstorming and Wisemapping for ones I need to share with clients (web-based). I want one for my Surface Pro 3 that I can use when facilitating brainstorming sessions with groups. I...

    Calendar app that syncs with Google Calendar

    I did try OneCalendar and it seems to be doing the trick so far. Wish it had an Agenda view though.

    News Reader App

    I have been trying NextGen. Works fairly well, but I don't see an easy way to clip articles to OneNote. I can do it once I open the article in my Chrome browser, but not from within NextGen.

    One Drive Syncing

    I did find that option - thank you. Would be nice to control it a little better though. I hear that might be a possibility in future according to the Microsoft team.

    News Reader App

    I use Feedly to read all my news on my Android tablet and smart phone. Just picked up a Surface Pro 3 and wanted to try reading my news on it but Feedly doesn't seem to have an app for Windows - just the browser. Which RSS reader Windows apps have you found to be good on the Surface Pro?

    Calendar app that syncs with Google Calendar

    Wondering what Windows App you prefer on the Surface Pro 3 tablet that syncs with Google Calendar. Just setting my my new Surface Pro and thought an app might be easier to read than the web browser version.

    Gmail App

    Just got my shiny new Surface Pro 3 and I was wondering about an app to read my email. I currently use Gmail but it looks like they don't offer a windows app. I know I can just access Gmail in a browser, but I thought an app on the tablet might be a more readable experience.

    One Drive Syncing

    New Surface Pro 3 user here and I really love this unit. But when I connected my Microsoft account to it, it started to download ALL my files, pictures, etc. in One Drive. I have too much in One Drive to fit on the 128GB that the tablet has. Is there a way to choose which folders are synced...

    Just wanted to introduce myself. My Surface Pro 3 arrived late last night. i5, 4GB RAM. Really pleased with the design. The stand is genius and I love the size. Best tablet/laptop hybrid I have seen so far. I am a speaker so I intend on using it to replace my old laptop when I travel to...
