    My horror story with Micosoft's service so far

    Technically your replacement was never implied to be in great condition, barely used, etc. The one you got is working and it'll get the job done. Since you're out of warranty and had to pay $400, I'd say that's as good as it'll get unless you want to get a heart attack.

    Anyone use the Power Cover?

    If they made a SP3 sized Power Cover, I would be all over it.

    My horror story with Micosoft's service so far

    Moral of the story is, it's hard as hell to get satisfying results when the support center is in another country.

    Do you keep your SP3 on mains after full charge?

    Eh, after doing this with my tablet and original ipad the last 2-4 years with no noticeable degradation in battery life, I'll keep doing it on here.

    Has anyone tried attaching an external battery to the type cover?

    The Power Cover used on the SP2 works on the SP3, but the cover will be quite small. It works as a secondary battery source.

    LTE- How many will go to SP4 for LTE it is offered?

    I have an unlimited data plan with Sprint (for YEARS!) so I can tether to any Wifi enabled device and not worry about going over a certain GB each month. I rather do that route than get a device that has LTE built in and you have to add it on to your plan.

    Strange Fan noise from fan when slightly moving

    My fan slightly whines when tilting or jerking it at an angle while it's running. It's normal as the fan is sitting on a axle so when it is shaken abruptly, it will change the pitch of the fan movement to compensate but only for a fraction of a second. Edit, yours isn't normal lol. Probably the...

    Yeah Craigslist posters have the option to mask their email using a relay system so if the original posting is deleting, the email won't work anymore.

    Microsoft Support pulls through once again!

    So I've had issues with my AC adapter on the Surface Pro 3 and the charging indicator in the taskbar saying it's plugged in charging, and then saying charged (and vice versa), even though it's been plugged in the entire time. Status light on the cord doesn't flicker, the cord itself isn't...

    Fitting the pen battery

    Batteries Plus + Bulbs has them for like $3 something. They only come in a 4 pack so I have 3 extra AAAA batteries that I'll probably NEVER use.

    Micro USB Port - A Poor Design?

    Funny, I was so close to getting a Surface 3 (one of the main features being MicroUSB charging) if I was able to get the accessories bundled for $600 (or around that price), but instead got a SP3 i5,4GB,128GB model instead and couldn't be more pleased. It was a lot cheaper too.
