So Im guessing I would no longer need my Diamond USB Video card to run the 2nd ext monitor? Thats good, I could resell it. The USB video card I have now for the 2nd ext monitor puts out max 1080P. It says it can handle res's up to 2048x1152, but thats PER screen isnt it? Cause my ext monitors...

Work well you think? Only thing I wonder is, running two monitors through it, how much resources would this use on the SP3? Would this mean I wouldnt have to run one of my monitors through mini DP on the Sp3?

And get dirty so easy! How often do you guys clean yours and what do you use? I just use micro fibre towel with a bit of water and rub. And I use canned air on the keys, Im shocked to see how dust gets in between the keys so easy. Its definitely a lot more maintenance than a regular laptop...

It has been super laggy right I did the hard shut down. Is there a way to fix this? Should I run disk check for errors?

Yesterday was odd, was running OneNote the full program and it sit for about 15mins. When I came back to it, the whole screen was frozen. Couldnt touch it, nothing. Had to hold the power button for about 30 secs for it to shut down the machine. Never had any freezes ever and wondering if this...

thanks Interesting. Played around with both and seems the app is much more simplified and quicker to get to things in some ways. I dont care about battery life really as I always have mine plugged in anyways. Full screen in the program doesnt work as well as I hoped. Still cant have a quick...

Got a question. Whats the difference between OneNote the Program and OneNote the app? Is the full better to use on the SP3? And remove the app?

Which button on the pen is the lasso? I hit the side ones and its back and fwd and the top purple one is to open a new page.

How did you do that screenshot of your onenote?

1) Being able to holding text that you have written in and copying and pasting it to another or new doc. This would save me a lot of eraser big sections of text. Cause I dont want to have to rewrite some stuff. 2) Having the option for it to go full screen or at least get rid, hide or resize...

Really? Well I will go see it and hoping Best Buy has it on display (dont think they do). Want to get my hands on it.

Mostly one, I always have both on though. For $140, its not worth it IMO, cause i would still need a SP3 wall charger, which brings it up to $200 anyways. lol.

WOW $140! How resource heavy would it be to run two monitors off a USB hub? Id imagine more than what im using to run just my 2nd off my USB Diamond video card using the DisplayLink drivers.

Even with a USB 3.0 dock, I still need to plug in 4 cables - USB dock, power, speakers and mini DP monitor. Unless you know of a dock that has an actual speaker output and mini DP. If so, id be very interested.

Thanks, forsure not gonna buy it cause if I still have to sign out and back in each time, then its pointless. Besides I would want to run my 2nd monitor on the SP3 Mini DP and from what I see you would have the vertical latches of the dock wide so that the mini DP plug can plug into the SP3...

I have a USB video adaptor (Diamond) to run my 2nd monitor. It runs fine, but obviously a monitor hooked up by Mini DP would use a lot less resources than one running off USB. It would be nice to be able to run both my monitors off Mini DP. My monitor isnt laggy at all, its not as smooth as the...

I have a couple friends who keep telling me that I would benefit greatly with the dock. I have dual monitor setup at my home desk with a USB hub, mouse, keyboard, ext speakers, and SP3 power cord. They say if I get the dock, all I do is slide in the SP3 and i dont have to plug, and unplug 4...

Anyone here have more than one? If so, what made you pick up a 2nd and is it worth it?

Actually, wrong. The more you kill a battery, the more you shorten its life. Li-Ion are meant to be constantly topped up and if you can minimize the number of times you run it below 70%, your batteries will last extra long. I do this with all my batteries for all my electronics and my batteries...

Lots on ebay as low as $15. Just the risk not knowing what quality it is.
