wtf do you guys use to remove the finger smudges on the screen? it's smudge city up in this bitch.
1. Ethernet -- USB 3.0 to 1Gbps Ethernet available -- not many of the Ultrabooks in the ultralight weight class have full-sized Ethernet ports nowadays -- it's either by dongle/USB/Thunderbolt.
2. Optical drive -- ditto, see above.
3. VGA -- There is miniDP -- get a mini DP to VGA adapter?
Unless there's an updated Ethernet dongle its actually USB 2.0 to 100mb. At least that is what was sent to me, if there's a newer one let me know so I can get it exchanged. We don't have WiFi coverage yet at work so my options are Ethernet dongle or Verizon data card, but that won't work well in many of my buildings.
Sigh, my tablet keeps getting pushed back. Now might not ship till end of month, hoping my rep will at least give me a shipping upgrade to try and get it there before Thanksgiving.
There are actually some USB 3 to 1GBs ethernet adapters available. I'm using one on an Acer W700P tablet at work.
I'm using this one I got off Amazon.
The adapter has been flawless. I have not had a single issue yet. It came with drivers but I have not yet installed them. Plugged the adapter into the tablet and it auto installed the drivers. Adapter is much faster than the USB 2 one we had previously used and is much more reliable and faster than wifi.
There are a couple other companies. We also have another brand at work but I'll have to check. The one I linked is the one I personally use and it's been flawless with Windows 8/8.1 thus far.
Just my luck. My pro won't turn on.

Thanks, I may just throw this on one of my next orders. Since I already have the official Microsoft one its not a big deal if it doesn't work wonderfully with the surface.

NS1 what are you using the stylus for? Why are you writing, just a Q
Should I get the Surface Pro 2 or an Asus Zenbook Infinity?
Anyone else try Flipboard? I can't seem to login or flip past the initial page.
I had to reboot to get the app to work. I tried uninstall/reinstall, but no go. It's a nice service/app.Works fine for me.
I am blown away by how awesome this shit writes. Are there any other stylus' that would be considered an "upgrade" over the current stylus?
Buy the Wacom Bamboo Feel stylus, and then use the soft (felt) nib.
Sample...
For those who are wondering: yes, that's my friggin' handwriting and all. I wrote most of that in portrait as well. 16:9 or not, this thing has been SOLID for handwriting and sketching.

That looks like a great stylus except for one huge personal issue. I absolutely NEED the eraser side of the surface pen and it doesn't look like that pen has one.
Is the Type Cover worth getting over the Touch Cover?
What's the difference between Type 1 and 2?
