Windows 10 briefing on January 21 at 9am (PST), other timezone here. :)

As previously warned, I wouldn't recommend the auto-login in case you lose your SP3, or it stolen. What I did do though is set a PIN code so that I don't have to type in the password now, just a bunch of digits. Maybe you should try that to see if this will help rather than auto-login.

Yup, its direct connection via Miracast / wifi protocol, so no router needed. Using the Microsoft WDA has proven very useful as I do the tv watching and surfing net constantly. :) On occasion though depending on the website or how many tabs I have open, it will start to lag a bit. I remedy this...

I'll add to this... Apple fan PC fan Android fan Burger fan Pizza fan Salad fan :) Beer fan Wine fan :) I use both an Apple and PC for both work and home use. I can speak to the iPad mini I still carry. If there were certain flying apps that were available on the PC that made my use case...

Likewise I have not seen scratches or cracks around the charging port or USB port. I constantly connect and disconnect and its been scratch free after 6+ months of use.

Hmm, maybe it's resolved in Win 10 TP? Setting is off on mine and from what I can tell, it does happen in battery mode once I disconnect power, but I use turn the brightness up 2 or 3 levels to maintain the level before.

That little separation could get worse depending on how your handling it in the long run. Do you plan on using a case/cover? If you're using it bare/naked, I would consider returning it. Otherwise it won't functionality but its your call and if you're nearby a store where your purchased it...

Do a system update for software/firmware and restart to see if it helps. Does Skype crash as well? Is it the Skype MUI version? You can also download the desktop version which I prefer to use.

You should check the following to verify your updates match. Sometimes it takes a few repeated attempts before it installs all of it correctly. http://www.microsoft.com/surface/en-us/support/install-update-activate/pro-3-update-history

The advantage is when you're not able to get online, you can view your old emails and create new drafts. Once you're able to connect, you can sync/check for new emails but also send your drafts. Also, without having to login using your email and password, its saved in the client.

I use both... Outlook 2013 for work and Thunderbird for personal.

Well I'm wondering too, but need to see a video or photo of what you're describing as others have mentioned.

No issues either with Lync on build 9879. Here's the version I'm running...

I have the Logitech K810 which works great if you have other devices that need BT. Not quite full size, ie, no numeric keypad, but works great switching between my MBP and Android phone. http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Bluetooth-Illuminated-Keyboard-Smartphones/dp/B0099SMFVQ

Good point. I'm assuming he's using Microsoft Wireless Adapter: http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/en-us/p/wireless-display-adapter I've read other people using other adapters like Roku or firestick with issues but not sure if its the same.

Happy New Year or Frohes neues Jahr! :) I was watching Australia's new year a few hours ago, hopefully it was safe and enjoyable in Bavaria as well!

What app and/or browser are you using for video playback? I've noticed I had to keep the number of apps open to a minimum to reduce the lag. For instance, for video playback like youtube, I'll use IE instead of Chrome for videos via the wireless adapter. If i'm not streaming to my tv, I'll use...

I see this too only on boot-up or restarting my system. As long as I don't see this in any other scenarios, I would consider this to be normal. I will try this when watching a movie and in low light situations. As noted by most, it seems to be only on startup. We could be wrong and can only...

I also have the Logitech K810 keyboard. The backlit functionality really helps in a home theater environment but also having it work with other devices is a big plus. Looks like someone reviewed the MS Wedge Mobile Keyboard. Very positive feedback, just not a low enough price or backlit keys...

You can check here => http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=38826 But the latest drivers will be pushed via Windows Update.
