It just takes time. They have to get your surface back, make sure it came with everything, then contact the credit card company to do the refund and that takes time too as the credit card company will have to process it.
You haven't initiated the process? You only have 14 days from the delivery date to do so. Better hurry if you want it.
I cancelled, I just stick on to my unit, too lazy to go through all the one process, for a slight curve, unless its really unusable then I will do that. as of now, its still acceptable
Anyone know where to get the arc mouse surface edition from any retailer.
Saw a few units at Funan Harvey Norman last Friday.

was trying to find it in NTUC yesterday so i can keep in my drawer but couldn't find any
Yes, overheating is the number 1 issue for SP3 now. Heard there will be a major update coming up in the next few weeks which might resolve this, but at a price, which I think is throttling.

Or you can just buy a 9v battery.. Duracell... break it open there are 6 nearly AAAA size batteries inside. great for emergency. Plus its cheaper getting 9V batteries...
Well, I can pretty much confirm the SP3 i3 does not have any heating issue at all. I max out both the GPU and CPU 100% (running CPU and GPU miners) and can see that it draws a total of 11.5W (from openhardwaremonitor) CPU package temp only at 70+C doesn't even touch 80C
Both GPU and CPU also running at its max clock speed.
Also, I have notice that the i3 have a lower Idle clock speed than i5. i3 clocks down to 0.57GHz while the i5 goes down to 0.75GHz. (this maybe due to the i3 is a Y part while the i5 is a U part.
I have not have the time to run a full battery test, but when I limit the clockspeed down to 0.57GHz, the battery life seems to be better.. great for reading webpages and PDF(didn't feel that its slow)
So far am pretty happy, I am currently using just at 0.57GHz speed for web surfing, reading PDF, spreadsheets, words, youtubes, watching HD Videos 1080P.. all no problem at all.. Not slow at all. Just wish that Microsoft shouldn't have crippled the i3 with just 4GB ram and 64GB SSD.. if only there was a 8GB ram and 256GB version of i3 SP3.. it would be more than enough for a lot of people as a mobile device.

Oh you didn't update the firmware? I think should be ok now that you updated.
Don't use Bluestacks. It sucks.
Try using DuOS-M. A far superior virtual solution for Android.
Interesting Does support x64 W8.1 for the SP3 no problems?
May I ask if the Whatsapp messages is active i.e. you will be notified or you need to open the DuOS-M tile to access it?
