I’m interested in how the pressure sensitivity performs with Ntrig drivers for apps that need them on the new Surface 3. The community has been vocal about performance issues when drawing slowly. Output is wavy as opposed to straight lines. See http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/surface/forum/surfpro3-surfupdate/surface-3-wavy-diagonal-lines-when-inking/78c138e5-50db-4544-a988-6023a84b9675 - can you talk about the performance when drawing slowly?

Thanks for that. So for those afflicted customers w/SP3's, there really is no "fix" since it is hardware related, correct?

USB power to DVD and USB hard drives. While the SP3 might be “to spec”, it doesn’t power peripherals very well. The new Surface 3 is more of a consumer device than the SP3 and there will be lots more people wanting to use these external peripherals. What should we expect?

Why is there no hosted networks functionality in the SP3?

Miracast is badly broken on the SP3. THE SP3 is not Miracast certified and the Surface 3 materials thus far don’t use the word Miracast anywhere. SP3 won’t negotiate with Miracast certified devices – Samsung in particular. This has been an on-going issue and there is no evidence that anyone sees this as a priority or is willing to fix and submit for certification. Will you fix the SP3 and get the Surface 3 up to spec PRIOR to launch and if not, why not?
