Now there's a new version, Elite x2 1013 G3 . With pricing ranging from £1,619 to £2,775 (inc VAT) there are plenty of configuration options, including mobile broadband.

Easily the worst device I have ever owned

My company purchased around 700 of these and the failure rate is horrendous. We average 4 devices down a day and the repair turn around is around a month. Save your money and get literally anything else.
