Hi guys, i just bought a surface 3 pro yesterday and would like to check how we can get a live tile that displays the battery percentage? i know it is possible on the windows phone but couldnt find one in the app store.

I tried the Battery Level Live Tile app, but didn't like it.

Also is there any way to determine the layout of the livetiles on the surface pro? they seem to be arranged via a preset order.

many thanks in advance

Press and hold any tile. This puts the start screen in 'customize' mode. You can then arrange the tiles.

Just got my Surface Pro a week back. Been bringing it out and using it on the go and at home as well. What a splendid gadget :D

For note, Surface RT (old version) is going at THB6500 (less than 250) including touch keyboard now in Bangkok. Great value I think.

i am happy to receive it free as it comes with Office and is good for surfing the net

RT system always come with Office. If all you need is simple browser that fully compatible and some simple office work. Is a good buy.

Hi guys how do you format your address when ordering online?

Usually I just do this for my online purchase

Blk 000 Xxxx Road #00-00

Postal Code

but cannot go to the payments page, when I called in also the CSO tried a lot of pattern but still cannot order for me due to address.

Everything is filled up.

I just do it exactly I would for something like say Amazon and other online retailers which never game me problems.

Even the CSO escalate the matter also cannot solve.

office vs office 365

Hi guys
Just a noob question so bear with me, the surface pro 3 comes with office 365 which is valid for 1 yr, last time i remember office is perpetual license one, you buy once use forever etc..

Whats the difference ah and which one more worth it? standalone license or office? i think standalone is called office student/home edition like last time?

Which one more worthwhile in terms of features and costs?

thanks
