Great little mouse

Verified Purchase:Yes
I thought the instructions were a bit lacking. Once you figure out how to use this mouse, it's dead simple, but I didn't think it was intuitive. There is no "on/off" switch, you just "snap" it flat or arched to turn it off and on. Had a few problems getting my first one to work (it was dead on arrival) and my Surface 3 had a problem connecting to it initially. But I've used it extensively since then, and it works great. It connects to the Surface immediately after turning the mouse on. Since the initial connect, haven't had one problem. I do worry about long term "snapping" and whether or not the device will hold up. But it works great and is pretty comfortable (better than the Surface Wedge Mouse in my opinion, which I use on my personal Surface 1 Pro)

Microsoft Type Cover for Surface Pro 3: Complement your Surface Pro 3 by adding protection and performance whether you're at home, at work or on the go. The ultrathin keyboard doubles as a screen-protecting case and sits at an incline on flat surfaces for a comfortable typing experience.

Essential Accessory

This is an essential accessory for a Surface device. It is easy to type on, and it is backlit. The trackpad is much improved over previous iterations. I don't like the fact that the pen holder is essentially a sticker (the "loop" attaches as a sticker to the back of the keyboard) which worries me long term.
While I enjoy the typing experience, it doesn't beat a traditional keyboard because of its size, but that's expected. For its size, and what it is, it's phenomenal. Just wish it was included with the Surface

Microsoft Surface Pro 3 Tablet: The new Surface Pro 3 is in a category of its own. With a stunning 12" display in a sleek magnesium frame, Surface Pro 3 has all the power and performance of a laptop in an incredibly lightweight, versatile form. It may just be the ultimate device.

Great travel laptop

I feel like the Surface devices get a lot of flack. They're not iPads and they're not ultrabooks. They are in a category of their own. I use mine for traveling. I would not want to use it everyday, because my work requires two monitors and more screen real estate.
Having said that, I love this Surface 3. I also have a Surface Pro 1, and the Surface 3 is leaps and bounds better. The screen is bigger, the device is lighter and it is lightning quick. I love the stylus, I enjoy writing notes on it. The Windows App store is lacking, but improving. But you can install any Windows legacy program.
Is it difficult to type on your lap (this is assuming you have a type cover) yes. But it is doable in a pinch. To be honest, if I had an ultrabook, I don't like typing on my lap. I'm always looking for a sturdy table to work on, so I don't have gripes re lap use.
The battery life is much improved over Surface Pro 1 which was THE BIGGEST drawback. I can go all day while traveling.
All in all, I recommend this device if you want a light travel work device. It's too expensive to be just a media consumption device, but if you need a windows laptop, this is the best way to go.
Try it out before you buy and recognize this device for what it is. It's not a traditional laptop nor tablet. And stop comparing it to an iPad. Once you get past that, you'll realize it's truly an amazing device.

Meet the unrivaled, everyday noise canceling headphone for people who want to keep it simple. Hesh ANC is engineered with just the right amount of added features to make your life a little easier without a lot of additional technology that you might not need.
Do these headphones have a mute button and how long is the battery life if using for office calls?
I don't think there's a dedicated "mute" button on the headphones, I didn't find one, so it will need to be controlled from your phone. I never measured battery life for calls, but I've used them for calls (they sound good) and listened to hours of music over the course of a couple of weeks (of and on, not every single day) before having to recharge them. I feel pretty confident you could go a full day of calls without the battery dying.

Does it automatically print a picture you take? Or can you chose which photos to print and which to just keep in your usb memory?
Yes it prints immediately. I believe, but am not 100% certain, that if you have a microSD card inserted, it will save a digital copy of the picture you take (and print)

The Ninja brand has been a leader in kitchen appliances delivering innovative products for decades. Now introducing the Ninja Professional Plus Food Processor—make food prep easier with its power, intelligence, and versatility. The 1000-peak-watt motor and preset programs chop veggies, shred cheese, and make smooth sauces and cookie dough from scratch—all at the touch of a button.
is there a storage container for the blades with this one or separate?
Unfortunately, there's no storage for the attachments which is a bummer. Obviously there's space in the container for one (where I keep the sharp chopping attachment) and I keep the shredding/slicing disc in a cardboard container that it came with for the packaging.

Use the Google Smart Light Starter Kit to control the lights using just your voice. Set up in a snap: just plug in Google Home Mini, screw in the GE C-Life smart light bulb, and download the Google Home app to get started. Then just say "Hey Google" to dim, brighten, turn on and turn off the lights."
Can I use this to turn off my lights while I am away from home? Also, do I get the starter kit and then multiple bulbs or do I need to get a box thing for each room? Thanks so much
Yes, you can turn off your lights from your phone (via Google Home app) when you are away from home. You don't need this starter kit per room unless you want multiple Google Home minis throughout your home (I have several) but obviously the number of smart bulbs (should you want them) will outweigh the number of Google Home minis you need. In other words, one Google Home mini could control all of the smart bulbs you have in your house. You would just need to be within earshot of that one mini when asking Google to turn lights on and off. For me, I keep one Google Home on each floor of my house

Does this ssd works on MacBook Pro
Yes, I installed it in my 2012 Macbook Pro. I would find a SATA cable, plug it in to your Macbook and clone your existing HDD, use a small Phllips Head screw driver to remove the bottom plate, unscrew the mounting bracket, insert the pegs from your old HDD to the new SSD using a torx screw (very small) and put the plate back on and that's it. Very simple and painless process

This Logitech Harmony 915-000194 smart control lets you use your compatible Apple® iPhone®, iPod® touch or iPad® or Android device to control up to 8 components for simple, multifunction use.
Does this remote work with Xbox one?
Yes, sort of, depending on what your asking. The remote itself doesn't control anything but commands to the Logitech Home. But yes, the Logitech Home does turn on my Xbox One S. I've controlled a Blu-Ray before but must admit I haven't tried to navigate the console menu.
