Hi All
I am looking at buying the surface pro 3 250 GB i5
The cover is not for sale in the UK yet and some places have imported from the USA.
Has anyone found a suitable cover othe than the MS one?
I dont want to buy the MS keyborad as the reviews are not too good and I intend using a full size blutooth keyboard and mouse with it
Many thanks

I use the one below, I had the 11 inch one but it was to tight so I got the 13 inch one. Very sturdy:

I'm sure this is a common debate.... I'm not sure if I should just get a neoprene sleeve for when I travel (goes in a backpack anyway) or get a real case like this: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/i-blaso...rface pro 3 case&cp=1&lp=13#tab=buyingOptions (I'm not clear if this supports the keyboard though).
I feel like on a plane or something with how small this is, it could slip off a tray, etc. and be destroyed if it didn't have a real case. Thoughts?

Here is what I think.
I would get a sleeve or small case without handle. Reason is when I am on the go (like travel, on the train, plane..), I always have a bag of some sort, I think this is true for everyone. For a case or sleeve, I avoid neoprene, I don't know I just don't like the feel of it. Also, I don't see the point of folio cases for Surface.

I had the Manvex case on my Surface Pro -http://amzn.com/B00KQRSLKI. A GREAT case. They have them for SP3 now.
I haven't put one yet on the SP3, and I kind of doubt now that I ever will, because I like the kickstand so much now. SP1 only had one kickstand position, and the case fixed that.
Definitely agree with @sleith001, I at least carry it around in a decently protective bag.

I have a Nixon case with a strap for putting over a Roller bag handle.http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msusa/en_US/pdp/Nixon-Surface-Sleeve/productID.255932500
I like it.

I'm thinking about getting this - can you post any pictures? I'd like to see how it fits in, with and without the cover. Looks very nice!

If you put it in the sleeve without the type cover, it moves around, with the type case it's a very snug fit, it won't move around.
I also have my pen attached to the top.
