    New Firmware - July 8, 2014

    For me, I got the whole shebang of updates on Patch Tuesday. I thought all was fine I guessed until yesterday I noticed at sign on that there was an update and it needed to be restarted. After doing so I got the dreaded limited wifi issue. I eventually got it to connect, but not before it...

    Excited new Surface Pro 3 owner

    I see this comparison all the time, like it's every other release. While this may be relevant to only desktop users, I feel while not perfect, 7 is not the perfect os for a tablet I want today. 8.1 blows it out the water and is a solid os so far for me both on my pc and Surface, even with all...

    YouTube review - Surface Pro dislikes

    Some valid points if they concern you, not so good on thought of other individuals needs. Nothing he said would EVER drive me to get that hulking monstrosity Dell XPS Duo. Sorry. The same things can be said of his preference choice. Bulky, heavy, unable to use one handed, difficult to...

    New Surface users vs. old

    I've had the SP1, S2 and now the SP3. I found the overall size of the first 2 gens. to be quite compact and nice, but limiting especially in portrait. The new size and stand are amazing improvements. I think an 11 incher would be perfect as SP3 can be a bit comical in comparison. The performance...

    Surface Pro 4 - wishlists!

    A few things would make it perfect. Of course, overall in a lighter package is always welcome and less bezel. I would like to see them incorporate the pen in a silo. It is just tacky as a tacky sticker loop. Although, I think it'd be nice to have an extra usb 3, I think going to a single mini...

    Who can recommend a very good antivirus app?

    Same here. Avast is free, it's lightweight and it's super easy to use. But I agree with the above, it's not fool proof. Know what you're clicking on and be aware of the risks with what and where you download.

    Best app / software for recording screen to video

    screencast-o-matic.com The best I use. Gives options to save and edit length, add notes or upload to youtube and other places. Free, but if you want more features, just a little bit extra.

    Screen protectors for SP3?

    I'm debating putting one on. I have one from Armorsuit that covers the entire device. I don't know if I want the feeling of that on my hands. The rubbery sticky feel is practical, but it takes away the feel of the device on screen and the vapor mag. I might just return it and go bare.

    Deformed SP3? Anyone notice that their SP3 is curved outwards in the middle?

    That would be unacceptable to me. MS needs to know about these quality issues so we don't have to deal with them in the future. This should have never left the door at the factory. I have an issue with the screen at the center of the length of the tablet on the bottom. It's barely noticeable...

    Surface name rumored to be replaced by HORRIBLE name Lumia.

    Normally, i'd agree. It's why I've supported Surface through all three generations so far. This just stinks it up to the point that I feel disgusted. I am seriously thinking of ditching the brand if it happens. I don't care if it runs a week on battery and ties my shoe laces.

    Surface name rumored to be replaced by HORRIBLE name Lumia.

    I do as well. And those that do know the difference, butchers the name to Lumina. Which is why it shouldn't be adopted. It sounds weak and it's synonymous with the cheapo 520 on certain carriers like MetroPCS. I think it's about as tarnished as Windows 8. They should ditch it and Lumia...

    Surface name rumored to be replaced by HORRIBLE name Lumia.

    I know that Lumia isn't better known than Surface. It shouldn't be either. It's been a failure since inception. They know the phones as Nokia xxx, or xxxx. Not Lumia something. No one cares for that name. It just doesn't stand out.

    Local vs. Microsoft account- why or why not

    IE tabs, bookmarks, and passwords sync between my pc, Surface, and phone. Click the tab button and at the top left of the tabs, there is a dropdown to choose which machine you want to see tabs open. Also, with a MS acct. if you have it set, my Lumia 920 on WP 8.1 is synced to Onedrive so I can...

    Surface name rumored to be replaced by HORRIBLE name Lumia.

    Everyone needs to take to Twitter and Facebook to let them know that this is a terrible idea. Hit up Microsoft, Surface, and Windows all if you feel the way I do.

    Surface name rumored to be replaced by HORRIBLE name Lumia.

    One of the most horrid and lucrative rumors I've ever heard. Lumia is difficult to pronounce. I cringe every time I hear someone say Lumina like the Chevrolet Lumina. That car SUCKED! I don't know about you, but I don't want my tablet associated with that horrible POS and of which people can't...

    Any Happy SP3 users?

    Still working great so far! Love the connected standby, it really works.

    Trying hard to love the SP3, but...

    Popups are non-existent for me on Modern IE. Have you gone to settings and checked to turn on popup blocker?

    Keyboard doesn't sit flush folded back

    Sure is. I'm sure it would've caused extra weight too. I wonder how much lighter the cover and tab would be without the magnets. I'd probably be as light as my Surface 2. Maybe a lighter, thinner SP4 could incorporate both and be lighter than an S2.
