    Had a play with the new Surface 3 in PC World today. I like it a lot... price seems over the top thigh when you add a keyboard

    Same as all the surfaces really, great products but the price point without a keyboard is too high.

    They should be including the keyboard as its one of its main selling points.

    So I picked up a Surface 3 a while ago (Yay PCW deal), and I'm looking for a matte screen protector for it. Anyone know of one that's not stupid-expensive?

    Hi, does anyone know if there are any implications with picking one of these up in the US? I am not buying the keyboard there, just the tablet itself. Apart from the wall socket charger (it's a micro usb anyway, so I can use any charger I already have) is there anything to worry about?

    I very much doubt it. Warranty may be US only however, worth checking.

    I bought a surface 2 in the states a few years ago without any problem. Which model Surface 3 are you going for? The LTE model is available there now I believe but not here yet. Im hoping to get that one!
