    Wow, I'm jealous. I wish I were so lucky.

    Post Your SP3 WiFi/Internet Issues Here

    If you are referring to replacement SP3 units being refurbs, she lied to you. I'm on #3 with #4 on the way and the only one that was new was the first one.

    October firmware update

    Maybe I'm just lucky, but my SP3 decided it needed to install the update twice. No idea why. This is my third SP3 and this one is likely to go back as well. The wifi has been spotty at best and bluetooth cuts off randomly, even before the update. Rebooting seems to fix the bluetooth but the wifi...

    List of top 3 likes and dislikes about SP3

    Sweets Beautiful screen Form factor Laptop/desktop replacement Pen Wow factor when meeting with clients Triple screens Mehs Horrible, horrible support and exchange policies Gets very warm and fan cranks up while in dock Lack of good W8 apps Comments I haven't owned a desktop for many years...

    Can the i5 SP3 drive dual 1920 x 1080 screens?

    I am running two 24" 1920x1080 monitors plus the SP3's own screen and they are all working without a hitch. Both are connected using mini DisplayPort to HDMI cables, one from the docking station and the other from the SP3's built-in mini DisplayPort.

    Random reboot and lock up

    Yeah, good luck with that. That's the same thing "Mary" told me, but now she's completely ignoring me. I'm pissed.

    Random reboot and lock up

    Nope. It's now been 12 days without a response. I was promised daily updates and follow up once the old unit was sent back. Haven't heard a damn thing and I've been asking for updates every couple of days. I'm actually thinking about consulting with my attorney at this point. They should not be...

    Custom Fan - Get More From Your SP3!

    I've often thought that a product that plugs into the side of the SP3, is the same thickness and height, and only about 3/4" wide or less, if possible, with several improvements built-in, would be awesome. The top of the unit could have GPS. The mini displayport, which would be used to hold...

    Haha Stupid Apple and it's iPhone

    I've accidentally left my Note 3 (with a flimsy plastic case on it) in my back pocket and sat on it many times. It's still like new.

    Random reboot and lock up

    So they assigned a specific rep to my case. "Mary" contacts me via email every couple of days to follow-up and let me know what's going on. The process is still ridiculous, but at least I have a rep that knows the case and keeps in contact so I don't have to explain my situation 27 million times...

    Yeah, I'm thinking about trying a mini displayport hub when I get my replacement unit. Like you, I would prefer to just pop it in the dock and be done. :)

    Random reboot and lock up

    Shoot me now. I have to return the original, not the bogus replacement or they will charge me for the replacement. So I have to send back the one that is working good now and keep the crappy replacement unit. Then they will send me another replacement. This is a terrible customer service...

    Random reboot and lock up

    I've explained to MS support that I want to return the replacement unit instead of the original unit no less than 15 times to 3 representatives and they still don't get it. *sigh*

    September patches giveth and taketh

    Spoke too soon. Just got the BSoD for DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE then locked up during reboot. Lovely.

    Oops, sorry, I just saw this message. I have two adapter cables that go from mini displayport to HDMI. One monitor is plugged into the dock and the other directly into the SP3.

    Poll Returned SP3: received new or refurb unit?

    My original SP3 is from lot 1427. The replacement was a refurb from lot 1423. The replacement is going back as it has more problems than my original.

    September patches giveth and taketh

    For me, it's all giveth -- that is, my SP3 was quite problematic, with heat issues, locking up all the time, generally unstable, and some software wouldn't even open. I did 2 refreshes and 4 factory resets and nothing fixed it. Since the 9/9 updates, this thing is cool as a cucumber and hasn't...
