    To Surface 3 or not to...

    Hard to image the SP4 is right around the corner. Just a few boardwell devices have trickled out and they're not lighting the world on fire. Smart money would be to see the next model 'surfacing' sometime next spring at the earliest.

    To Surface 3 or not to...

    I would recommend buying somewhere with a solid return policy and trying it out. I haven't experienced one blue screen in four months and I use my SP3 40+ hours a week. I had a few wireless issues when hyper-v was enabled so I restored my system to factory new and didn't enable hyper-v and...

    Yellow streak reduction???

    I love it. A low tech solution for a high tech problem. I'm planning to test it out after I decompress from returning from a business trip (to MS).

    Yellow hazy vertical line on left side of screen

    @BillJ Thanks for the information I really appreciate it. It's disappointing to hear but good to know. I guess for the time being I'll leave it be.

    Yellow hazy vertical line on left side of screen

    The yellow band on my SP3 is starting to make me blue. I'm not sure the best way to get it resolved. Should I go to a MS store or call the support line?

    Phone charging with power supply USB port

    It works perfect to charge my iPhone 5 and my SP3. Which is super convenient since isn't one less adaptor I need to carry around.

    Macgirl here, considering dumping my Mac and ipad for a SP3

    I still use my iPad all the time because of the robust App support. While SP3 has access the whole windows catalog very little of it is optmized from touch controls and/or high dpi monitors.

    Ok, the yellowish bar is starting to get to me. What action have people taken and what was the result of that action?

    Macgirl here, considering dumping my Mac and ipad for a SP3

    I just got back from the Apple Store exchanging an iPad Air 2 that had metal filings under the screen. I was surprised to see it with a bonded screen. I didn't know NZ had Best Buy. :)

    Buy Surface Pro 3 now or wait for 4

    Wouldn't expect a new Surface Pro model until springtime but you never know. Regardless the SP3 is great and I'm totally happy with it just as it is. The SP4, SP5, etc.. are all unknown entities at this time.

    Yellow stripe at top of screen getting worse

    I haven't noticed it getting worst. In fact I've kind of forgotten about it. But if it does get noticeable worse I'm calling up Microsoft and they're going to make it right. Clearly a manufacture detect and not do to normal wear and tear.

    Surface Pro 3 Dominates the iPad Air 2 in Nearly All Benchmarks

    In my mind it's amazing how close Apple is getting to Intel with their custom Arm design. Usually in the product breakdowns it is shown that the A series processors usually cost Apple less than $20 to produce. I would bet MS is paying Intel a lot more money for the Haswell processors. The A...

    Surface Pro Screen Protector - official, tempered glass

    I don't like this at all. A first party screen protector makes me wonder why didn't they just build a better screen instead of selling an accessory. It's like they're saying we know are screens aren't durable enough..
