    How are you enjoying your "Go"

    got the LTE version and been quite happy with it for about a week of use now. my main laptop is SB2, so this has replaced it when traveling to work, on the train or cab etc. LTE speeds on TMo is fast. I can hotspot it too if needed to share. typing is good enough for email. I love the e...

    Pen scratches side

    metal on metal will scratch. but the color of SG hides it well. if you worry about that can leave the pen on a different place like in the bag. the stuff is like a phone, mobile and used frequently. Dont get too worried about little wear and tear. if it bothers you, perhaps get a case. like...

    Are you REALLY using that touchscreen? - Buying Advice :)

    once you start, it is hard to go back. Web browsing, photo zoom, reading is all easier with touch. mouse and track pad are good for editing and typing. pen is for certain tasks like annotating or draw. I will not buy a laptop without touch.

    Further Andromeda Speculation.

    Samsung doesn't make OS and the software will matter just as much. Look at their tablets, pretty good hardware, but I wouldn't buy an android tablet over a Surface Pro or iPad. I suspect if Surface team can make a compelling device and software (Andromeda is both hardware and software), oems...

    New HP x3? The x4?

    x3 is a terrific first gen device by hp. Too bad they won't be releasing more WM phones for the time being for WM fans. Potentially if Andromeda is released, they may play on the phone/tablet form factor for corporate use. WOA will solve alot of the enterprise stuff, which they tried to address...

    $99 Harman Kardon Invoke Black Friday Deal

    Quality is really good, both sound and build. Works fine with my Spotify, TuneIn. Hey Cortana recognition across room works well when it is not too loud, but it seems to be better than my SS or Xbox Kinect in the same room. Outlook calendar functions, but it doesn't read my google calendar...

    Edge on W10Pro can't stay logged in or jumps to mobile.

    Been having really strange issues with Edge on Win10Pro, running 1709. It frequently logs off sites, particularly Amazon, even when I set to "remember me".. And at times, it will jump to the mobile version. I do have WM10, and all my windows stuff are linked. Initially it was just on a...
