There should be a separate Windows RT thread for Surface 1/2 and Lumia 2520 owners.

why u gotta be so mean?
I own an RT device
Microsoft Store stopped working on my Surface 2 - I can browse the marketplace but selecting an app just has it show the loading circle indefinitely.
Any ideas?
http://www.wpcentral.com/surface-pro-3-real-specs-and-pricing-revealedFor the Surface Pro 3, which is now confirmed as being a real device, there will be five versions offered with varying pricing and configurations:
i3-4GB RAM-64GB - $799
i5-4GB RAM-128GB - $999
i5-8GB RAM-256GB - $1299
i7-8GB RAM-256GB - $1549
i7-8GB RAM-512GB - $1949
As mentioned above, there will also be new Type covers, though it's not known what if anything is new about them. Considering the Surface Pro 3 is expected to be a larger device (possibly in the 12 inch range), it would make sense that large Type covers would be required. Those covers will come in the following colors:
Black
Purple
Cyan
Red (Microsoft Exclusive, possibly limited to Microsoft Stores)
Other details about the Surface Pro 3 hint at a smaller bezel, larger screen size and the Windows button being located on the vertical side, as opposed to horizontal. Unfortunately details about weight, battery life, screen size and dimensions, are not known.
Hey so I may be starting a new position in which a laptop will be beneficial, and I love the idea of the Surface Pro 2 with the Power Cover for just meeting all of my needs. I probably won't be picking it up till June/July though if I do. What is the likelihood of the Surface 3 coming out this year? Is it 'definitely' a yearly update ala iPads?
Also the Docking Station and the Power cover look pretty nice but I can't find anything on an Australian release date, has anyone got anything on this also?
Cheers
Microsoft is holding a "small" Surface event on Tuesday to introduce the new ARM based 8" Surface, but rumors state that they'll also announce the Pro 3 there.
Welp, I guess I may be getting my SP2 back.
:/ They should've held off on the Pro 3 for bigger technology strides.
Don't know how I feel about it being even bigger than what we've already got though; 12 inches with the same depth due to the USB 3.0 port doesn't sound all that nice.
That's true, didn't even consider the Surface 2 with it's USB port. Could totally work.Doesn't have to be as thick as the existing Pros. The Surface 2 is thinner and has a full-size USB port. With a bigger screen, I think they will definitely make the device thinner.

I think it's good they get it out there before the rumored 12" iPad (and shortly after Samsungs 12" Galaxy Tab). For things like drawing the added size will surely be appreciated.
What will be interesting to see is how they'll change the kickstand and the covers. Maybe they'll just use bigger versions of the existing designs, but there might be some surprises.
Yeah, Microsoft's support is pretty swell. My girlfriend "lost" her Surface charger at a hotel, and Microsoft made sure that shit got replaced ASAP. I was really impressed.Put in an exchange request for my Type Keyboard 2 since it's a broken POS, and it's still under warranty. Gotta say I'm very impressed by MS's support site, letting me schedule a free exchange with no hassle whatsoever. Pretty painless stuff!
I'm getting that too occasionally. It's when you try to watch a youtube video right? It happens to me on desktop.
I know this has been brought up before, but I'm not sure if it's been answered. Is there a way to view GAF (or any site) in mobile view during split screen?
Interesting you ask this.
I've got a tiny pet project I've been messing around with, but haven't had the motivation to finish, you imply there may be some interest to it, but Im not sure if I'm allowed to do it.
Basically, I have a Universal Windows App called "SnapGAF" It opens the mobile version of NeoGaf and lives on the right of your screen, taking a column up (by default its at 25% off your screen).
It was something I was going to look at seriously persuing once my ID@XBOX license came though, (I already have Win8 and WP8 Dev Licenses) because who wouldn't want to shout XBOX SNAP SNAPGAF at their Xboxone...
Do you think its worth me pushing it and getting it at least on the Win8 store for now? and is there someone here I need to talk to about getting permission to publish an unofficial NeoGAF Surface/WP/Xbone(!) app?
When I go to a Youtube video, I get redirected to the following page:
Anyone else get this? How can I fix? Clear cookies?

I'll try thisGo to tools in IE, add youtube.com to compatibility view sites. It's a dumb ad failure by youtube.

Oh man, that Surface Pro 3.
Sigh, just bought mine 2 months ago :/
I just got mine for Christmas and I'm wanting this. Oh man.
Anyone else considering selling their for the SP3? I've got a 256 SP2 that I love, but that extra screen space sounds excellent for drawing. Is there a benchmark/size comparison up anywhere?
The same shit happened when I got my MBP in late December of '07 and they refreshed the entire lineup the following February.
Only if i can get a really good deal. Otherwise, i'll keep my sp2.Anyone else considering selling their for the SP3? I've got a 256 SP2 that I love, but that extra screen space sounds excellent for drawing. Is there a benchmark/size comparison up anywhere?
