    Charging SP7+ from a power bank

    You need a power bank that supports at least 65W PD over USB C. I use an Anker Power Bank that delivers 100W PD over USB C for my Pro 9 5G.

    I've been using it sense Wednesday, runs as well as my Pro 8 even though it's the ARM SoC. Battery life is much better and the 5G connection was faster than my office WiFi. I'm running the Beta Ring for Office and Dev Channel for Windows 11.

    Anyone plan to buy Surface Pro 9?

    I have the pro 9 5G on preorder, weird part, they offered me $200 for Pro X trade-in and only $180 for my Pro 8. So, I'm trading my Pro X and selling my Pro 8 personally.

    Cannot use internal display and external display at once

    Any pending updates (Firmware, Hardware Updates, etc.) on the device that is misbehaving? Honestly for most issues, I do a factory reset it tends to be quicker.

    Outlook links

    Internet Explorer is deprecated and only supported by Business Customers paying for extended support and Office 2007 has reached the end of support as well. URL handling has changed enormously since the mid-2000s. Upgrading to a newer version or switching to Mail or Outlook.com is your best bet.

    End of Type Cover?

    I think you are seeing the impact of the supply-chain issues that are impacting the Tech Sector, I do believe we see restock but it will most likely target enterprise and corporate customers.
