    <p>Paul/Brad – Check this listing on Amazon. It is listing "OLD VERSION" for Surface Book and Surface Pro 4. I think this points to updated versions (but not SB2/SP5) to be announced at the Oct MS event.</p>
    <p>Microsoft Surface Book (128 GB, 8 GB RAM, Intel Core i5) (OLD VERSION)</p>
    <p>Microsoft Surface Pro 4 (128 GB, 4 GB RAM, Intel Core i5) (OLD VERSION)</p>

    <p>PT’s take on the Nexdock is dead-on, doesn’t come with USB-C capability and the build quality is disappointingly poor. &nbsp;It’s got an odd and seemingly random array of cables included, none of which were of use to me, at least not without some jury-rigging and resulting touchpad lag. &nbsp; The pending HP dock for use with their x3 looks to be a much better design and has a higher build quality. &nbsp;I will fiddle around with it still, just to see how good the display is. &nbsp;I am interested in the Lenovo&nbsp;Yoga Book with Windows, though. &nbsp;Lenovo has approached the stylus/handwriting issue in a more thoughtful manner than Microsoft’s afterthought approach. &nbsp;</p>

    <p>I will never forget what my Latin/English teacher said. Say the word three times, write the word three times, and write it in a sentence three times and the word is your forever. Even typing transcriptions or recording, &nbsp;and then outlining with pen and paper is the best way for many people to retain what&nbsp;was said. This might even work for something like that</p>

    <p>I think Microsoft could get a good start with a $50 streaming stick by incorporating Xbox One game streaming (from an existing Xbox One console). It would be a good way to differentiate from the Roku and Chromecast as well as tap into an existing user base.&nbsp;</p>

    <p>Your comments about the Surface Book being too large and the Yoga Book being too small for note taking suggest that perhaps Microsoft should update the Surface 3.&nbsp;</p>
