Just ordered Core i5 256gb SP3 with red type cover...and extra pen since my main purpose is taking notes and I like to have extra!
 
Did you checked that the adapter has to be ordered separately this time ?? it mentioned on the web site. ?? what is the cost ?

[1] Office sold separately.

[2] System software uses significant storage space. Available storage is subject to change based on system software updates and apps usage. 1GB = 1 billion bytes. For more information, see surface.com/storage.

[3] Surface Covers sold separately

[4] Adapter required, sold separately.

[5] Up to 9 hours of battery life for video playback. Battery life for other uses will vary.

[6] Your new Surface comes with a one-year limited hardware warranty and 90 days of technical support.

Yeah...I saw that footnote#4 also. But I think it would be really stupid of MS if the box did not include the adapter and the pen Highly unlikely that it wouldn't though.

Edit: BTW, on the MS-UK website, there is no Type Cover 3!!! And, they will ship by 31st August!!!! Damn!

Edit: Sorry. The Type Covers are available. But oddly, they are listed as Type Cover only - no numeric designation.

Yes you can use your typecover 2.

FAQ

Can I run everything on Surface Pro 3 that I can on my laptop or desktop?

A: Yes, Surface Pro 3 is a full laptop replacement.

How does the magnet on the keyboard work?

A: The magnet is designed to increase the on lap typing experience. Simply connect the magnet to the bottom of the device.

Does Surface Type Cover and Type Cover 2 work on Surface Pro 3?

A: Surface Pro 3 works best with Surface Pro 3 Cover, however your Touch and Type Cover 2 will click in and work with Surface Pro 3.
 
Note 4 refers to this sentence (which admittedly also doesn't make much sense):
"Plus, you can easily connect your peripherals and transfer files via a full-size USB 3.0, microSD card reader, and Mini DisplayPort.[4]"

I'll be getting the 128 with Blue Cover....but I won't be pre-ordering it. I want to buy it as and when it is generally available.
