It's a dream that will most likely disappoint.

I think they call that a "placeholder"..
I saw that a few days ago, but, until there is a picture/pn/price, its meaningless..

Macgarage,

I don't think so.

Since Victoria from Acurite has joined us, I wonder if she can give us any hints on when the Elite might be coming?

No.  The Elite uses a different frequency and modulation scheme, so it requires a different display.
