    How do you hold your Surface Pro 3?

    I don't. I rarely hold it in my hand, that's what the kickstand is for. That is one of the best design features in this device. The kickstand does what all other tablets want their device to do, to stand in an upright position for optimal viewing. I found a new way to "hold" it while sitting...

    new intel driver

    I just noticed that with this new driver, all my MUI apps don't work properly. They would load, then minimize and hang. I tried this with apps that I installed like Evernote Touch, Flipboard and the same thing happened with pre-installed apps like Fresh Paint. I rolled back the driver and...

    I wonder if they're going to carry this in Canada?

    Poll What would you do?

    Sorry to hear about your woes and your inability to find it in store. I am on my 2nd SP3 i5 and I returned the first one due to a malfunctioning touch screen and checked it out in the store before I left and have been perfectly happy with it.

    My 4 yr old spilled water on my type cover..

    Glad to hear that it works again. Water is better than milk that a 4 year old might have around them.

    new intel driver

    I tested the new driver with a Steam game - Tomb Raider and it seems to have better performance vs the older driver. The frame rates are a bit better and the graphics do not lag like they used to.

    [PHOTO] album of your Surface Pro 3 desk set up

    Telstar1948, I agree 100%. I was thinking about posting a picture of my desk setup, but compared to all the pics that have been posted, I'm embarrassed as my desk looks like a mess compared to the ones posted. I guess I'll have to stage my desk like people stage their homes to buy it to show...

    new intel driver

    Well, I tried it again and manually added the new driver to the list of installed drivers and it seemed like it worked, but the driver revision on the device manager still only shows 10.18.10.3907

    new intel driver

    I already did that the first time around. I know how to update the driver manually.

    new intel driver

    What am I missing? I downloaded the ZIP file, extracted it to a folder, went to Device Manager and into the display drivers and attempted to update the driver to this new one, but it keeps on saying that I have the most up to date version. The current version I have installed is 10.18.10.3496...

    SPro3 - Fan rattling issue

    Send that back for warranty replacement. Sounds like the fan bearings have been damaged and the fins are rubbing against the casing.

    SP3 @ Starbucks

    It seems that stereotypes die hard. http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2468382,00.asp I don't like Starbucks so I wouldn't be using it there.

    Poll Is inking better on Surface Pro 3?

    I had the SP2 for less than a month before they announced the release of the SP3. The one thing I did not like about the SP2 inking was the pen. It was simply too thin to hold comfortably. The SP3 pen is SO much nicer and more natural to use. I would almost consider the SP2 pen to be more...

    SP3 in short supply?

    Welcome Magnus! Think about how those who pre-ordered felt having to wait over a month and a half for the release date.

    Touchscreen Calibration problem?

    Interesting. When I was having problems with my first one, I had the keyboard down and was charging without the type cover touching the screen. Sounds like you're inferring that the electronics in the type cover is causing issues with the screen? Does the dead spot only happen with the...

    Solved The tablet that can replace your laptop - It is not a lie!

    Oops, I re-read the title and the original question and am amending my reply. There are too many double negatives in the question and poll questions which make it confusing. My vote would be for NO, it is NOT a lie and I CAN and HAVE replaced my notebook with a Surface Pro 3.

    Custom Fan - Get More From Your SP3!

    I would agree. At first, I thought the add-on module was for the SP3 power supply, but upon further viewing, I noticed that it is for a USB hub. To the OP, thanks for all your design work to make this happen.

    September Patch Tuesday - No WiFi Fix for SP3

    I updated my SP3 with most recent update against my better judgement and was pleasantly surprised that my slow wifi issues have been completely resolved now. Right now at home, I'm connected at 270 + Mbps which is the fastest I've ever connected with either of the original SP3 I had and the...
