Ahhhh thank you I didn't see the fine print with regards to 'single side button'. That's a shame though because I prefer having two buttons over the one that comes with the SP4.

So my nib order from MS arrived today but none of the new nibs will fully insert into my SP3 pen. I saw the user reviews on the MS store stating that this nib package won't work with the SP3 pen but I also saw replies from MS saying that they will. For the life of me I can't get the new nibs...

There was an update today on my SP3 but unfortunately the CPU/fan problem still exists.

Any word on when this is going to trickle out to the masses? My SP3 is virtually unusable on battery because of this problem.

That's awesome! Thanks for the headsup.

My SP3 automatically updated to build 14393.105 and ever since then the CPU + blaring fan has been running continuously even when it's sitting idle. Am I stuck with this until MS releases another patch or is there something I can do to fix this myself?

You're not alone, I too miss the touch gestures that were in IE Metro under Win 8.1 I really hop MS brings them back as they were perfect for casual web browsing on the couch. I did find this: How to Get Touch Internet Explorer in Windows 10 I don't know if it works because I rolled back...

I love Win 10 on my desktop PC but, IMO, they totally borked the touch experience on the Surface Pro so much so I rolled back to 8.1 on my SP3.

Man that sucks to hear as I loved using IE metro on my SP3 when using it as a tablet on the couch. Is it possible they'll bring swiping to Edge?

Can you tell me how you did this? Is it a matter of right clicking and shutting down the multiple Chrome applications in the task manager or is there more to it?

You guys like the short iteration cylces of the Surface Pro? I'd much rather have something like 2 years between versions so I don't feel like I'm stuck with an obsolete machine when version x comes out xx months later.

Have you had any heat issues with that case attached to your SP3?

I'm running with the i7 SP3 and on occasion the metro UI will be completely frozen and unresponsive to either my finger and keyboard/touchpad input. I can still move the mouse arrow around on metro but I can't launch any apps or scroll the UI about to other parts of the screen. I don't think...

I can vouch for this mic as I used it extensively back when I was taking classes. It's a fantastic quality mic for the price and I highly recommend it for lectures.

After using my SP3 last night in bed I closed the cover and left it unplugged thinking it would go to sleep. This morning I plug it in and power on the device and it boots into Windows just fine but then shuts down without the shutdown screen. My screen simply went black. I boot it up again...

Grr I meant to answer yes it has replaced my laptop but I can't change my answer

Grrr, my i7 just overheated and shut down during the installation of the updates. It's done this before with the last big update too. Interestingly I can take my i7 SP3 outside where it's 90 degrees + in the shade and use it just fine with no overheating at all while web browsing and...

Bah! My i7 SP3 just overheated on me for the first time while doing a factory refresh. I turned it back on and the refresh continued with no problems but I'm curious as to why refresh process caused an overheat given that I have gamed on this and have had it out doors in 90+ heat (web...

Is this for desktop IE or will it work for metro IE too?

I've noticed the exact same thing as well with my i7 SP3. Powering off and then on to resume my browsing takes care of the heat issue but from time to time I still need to reboot it.
