    charging cable with a usb on the other end?

    The Surface Pro 3 is not an iPad, or any other run of the mill tablet. You can't charge it off of USB, @sere. It requires too much power, so you have to use wall outlet.

    Surface Pro 3 Laptop Mod

    Not everyone can just afford to buy another device. Also this is not killing the intended usage of the SP3. It is just making it more comfortable when used in a couple situations. It is not being carried around in this every hour of every day. It is only being used in bed or on the couch for...

    Surface Pro 3 Laptop Mod

    Yeah, the reason for the full wood top (instead of just having a little area the surface sits in) is due to the poundage of the torque hinges I have. Otherwise it would be putting a lot of pressure on the surface itself when closing and opening. The way I made it the pressure is placed all on...

    Surface Pro 3 Laptop Mod

    So my wife has been complaining about the lapability of her Surface Pro 3 for a while. The stand really feels like it is cutting into her legs(She has Fibromyalgia). For this Mothers day I took some scrap wood and made a version 1 of a "Laptop Mod" for the Surface Pro 3. The surface just...

    Kickstand Feet?

    There is a metal strip in the back that would let the stand stay closed. I had a case that didnt allow the stand to close all the way and the metal strip was slowly pulled off by the high power magnets. The strip is just held in place with glue.

    Any news on customizable pen buttons?

    I have read that people have successfully remapped some of the buttons on the pen using AutoHotKey. I have not messed with it though, might want to look into that. Here is a result I found real quickly. http://www.lovemysurface.net/surface-pro-3-purple-button/

    Chances of Surface 3 UAG Case being made for SP3

    I just saw this UAG Case for Surface 3. OMG I want it. It has all the things you would want for the S3 and SP3. Unfortunatly, it obviously will not fit the SP3. Wonder if they will make a case like it for the SP3. Note the pen holder, that is not on the current UAG SP3 case...

    Games List for SP3?

    I have plenty of air flow around my SP3 when I use it for gaming. If you have it in a poor vented area it will be super easy for it to get hot and throttle. Just having an external desk fan blowing seems to be enough to stop it for me.

    Help - lost ability to close apps!

    For me it has always been that I have to bring the mouse cursor to the very top of the screen that the app is on and the bar pops up after about 1 second. I have never noticed a "right click" causing the bar to show up. Also I would close with offscreen swipe on tablet from very top to bottom...

    Best Travel Bag/Case?

    This is what I used for a while. Plenty of room for various accessories too, while still being very compact. It fits the SP3 with Type cover just right, even though it is rated for smaller units...

    From Android to Windows phone, Bad Idea?

    Yeah I love the look of Windows Phone and would love to migrate more off Google, mainly for the sync between all my windows devices(Computer Work computer, and SP3). I have high hopes for Windows 10 and wanted to get in now before it releases, but I think I will just wait for the next Windows...

    From Android to Windows phone, Bad Idea?

    I have been interested in switching to Windows Phone from Android. Right now I have a Galaxy Note 3, and have been eyeing the HTC One M8 Windows. I am quite Google-centric though. Is it a total bust for me to switch? I haven't seen much at all in the world of Google applications that run on...

    Surface Pro 3 i5 or i7

    The better graphics processor in the i7 is very noticeable for me between my i7 and my wifes i5. Especially when it comes to spot rendering checks and manipulation complicated objects.

    Error 0xc0000034

    I saw a reference to maybe try turning off Fast Start up stopping the error from happening. Go to Control panel...Power Options, and select Choose What the Power Buttons Do on the left. Then select Change Settings That Are Currently Unavailable near the top center of screen... Lower down on the...
