I've been using this device for the last week and it's been excellent and with the 3 USB ports (3.0) ..it's a win!

I bought a Snugg case for my Pro 3 and it fits nicely.

Doesn't add too much to the depth (still slides into my shoulder bag) and I can flip it closed and the magnetic catch holds it shut. This is a link to the Amazon UK site. I am pretty sure that Microsoft US are selling these cases, and in fact I that it is also marketed on Amazon as a case for the 13" MacBook.

I also bought a Microsoft Bluetooth wedge mouse to go with my SP3 and it works ok. It's a nice small mouse but after having used it for a few days, I kinda wish that I had looked for a Bluetooth mouse which had a scroll wheel in it. The up-down touch-slide function on this mouse seems to often have a slight delay in registering the presence of my fingers and the fact that I am trying to get it to scroll up or down and then suddenly it does realise that my fingers are stroking the top of it and sends the screen zooming up or down very fast and goes flying past the point that I wanted to reach. Might have a look to see if it is possible to adjust the sensitivity settings on it, but overall it's not a bad little mouse and means that I can have the USB port free.

I think you need to have Xbox Music playing and then lock the screen. Now you will get the Xbox Music controls from the lock screen when using the volume button.

Your right....but it wasn't what I expected. So it appears on y lock screen that's a plus but only after I click the volume button or kit the play pause button on the keyboard. I guess its better than nothing

This would be cool for the SP3... anyone by chance know if it would block anything? I emailed the site this question too

Stay away from taht one if you wan to have the power plugged in while using the hub. This one does not block the power port but it does block the mini display port (i have it) http://www.amazon.com/Bidul-Reader-Microsoft-Surface-S-USBHub4in1-3-0/dp/B00HWMP108

Blocks charging port.

This case looks good also. Comes with screen protector and stylus for $14.99!

I got this one and I don't like it. The top covers the cooling system. Also it's almost impossible to get access to the right charm because the case covers the whole right side but the Windows button. So when you try to get access to the charm you end touching the Windows button.

Hmm where did my message go to? I wasn't advertising by the way, next time I will just post a picture of the case

I bought one of these the other day. I wasn't expecting much for $5 and change (shipped). I was pleasantly surprised by the fit and finish. It doesn't block the screen, ports, or most of the cooling vents.
