I remember when Apple said in 2012 there was no need for NFC. So now they have Apple Pay - the best thing since sliced bread. Oh, but they disabled all other NFC functions, typical...

Lol, yes indeed. I still have 2 PlayBooks and they still run fine and work well for some things. like HDMI out to TV. One of them I use every day, but since I got the Surface Pro 3, I use them much less. The new Passport device is off to a good start with both Amazon and Shop BlackBerry USA...

BlackBerry is far from dead. This awesome new phone was released today. http://us.blackberry.com/smartphones/blackberry-passport.html They aren't targeting the Apple crowd and consumers, this is aimed at a niche market of professionals. I was reading the thread about Windows bashing, I haven't...

:)Highlighting, copy and paste on the Surface are essentially the same as on the new BlackBerry 10 phones. Gestures with swiping are very similar except I had to get used to swiping down to close apps on the Surface whereas on BlackBerry swiping up closes the app. l felt right at home with the...

Congrats!!

I didn't see it until I restarted the device. Now I have it.

Welcome to the forum. You will love the SP3!

Looks interesting to me. It reminds me of Active Frames on BlackBerry 10 phones where you can have multiple apps running and touching one brings it to the foreground. Swiping up puts it back in the active frame, see picture. Does dexpot work with touch? That would be cool.

Lobos, I run Kaspersky Internet Security on my SP3, first SP, and all my computers. Some years ago it used to cause problems at times and slow things down. The last 3 years or so it no longer causes slowdowns or any problems that I can see.

Seems like some folks are blaming the victim - it's not his fault he got 4 faulty units. Sheesh...

No big issues for me except minor things like the weather app not wanting to open.

That's terrible. I've always had positive experiences at my local BestBuy and have purchased a lot of electronics and other items there. The sales guy at the Surface counter is very knowledgeable about it and bought the I7 for himself. He's showed me lots of neat things about it. Staples has...

Since the latest set of updates the weather app only opens about 25% of the time. That's usually after opening and closing it a few times. There are some recent reviews in the Store saying the same thing. Has anyone else noticed this?

It's probably best to not connect it to the SP3 until it's had time to dry out completely. I don't know if putting it in a bag of rice for a couple of days to dry, like a cell phone, would help.

My HP wireless printer appeared on the SP3 with no action on my part. It also prints from the SP3 and I never installed the printer software. It seemed like magic. :D

I've taken mine into Starbucks several times but not seen one there. I have noticed more people using non-Apple laptops and tablets lately.

Thanks Andrea, I had forgotten about the magnifier.

My SP3 has totally replaced my company issued laptop. I hated it because it weighs a ton and is very slow. The SP3 is perfect for using in the field. I use my desktop for some things, but not nearly as much as before. I keep thinking how I could replace it with the SP3.

It's not anywhere near that large, geez.

I don't have a problem with seeing IE in desktop or MUI, what kills my eyes are the Windows dialogue boxes and there doesn't seem to be a way to make them larger. I've read its not recommend to change the device resolution but I don't know why... Screen clipping added
