A new rugged tablet PC from X2 Computing to be presented at G2E

Uniquely, this will enable multiple games to be played simultaneously on a single device and deliver significant additional revenues to gaming operators.

According to Francis Davis, Managing Director of X2:  “This new tablet PC is designed to meet the precise requirements of gaming operators and has the resilience and reliability to provide dependable service in the most demanding environments, unlike the consumer-based devices that are offered by other suppliers.  It will make a significant contribution towards helping operators to increase the level of third party gaming content, driving up revenues and profitability.”

The X210GM is based on the Intel Atom N270 1.6GHz processor and is compatible with a range of operating systems including Windows 7, Windows 7 Embedded and Windows 7 compact (CE), which makes it easier to control content management and software updates across multiple locations.  It has a robust, ruggedised casing, integrated handle and variable position kick stand with a 10.1” three point multi-touch screen and a built-in gyro enabling games to be played in landscape or portrait mode according to user preference.  The X210GM uses the latest 802.11n wireless technology providing access to additional video-rich content and, with a range of storage options up to 520GB, has the power to run even the most demanding gaming applications.

“X2 is now the UK’s largest supplier of hand held bingo terminals with an installed market share in excess of 80%,” continued Francis Davis.  “We are now gearing up for a major expansion to meet the added demand from other operators wanting to upgrade their games as around 90% of all bingo played is still paper-based.  We are already in advanced negotiations with bingo operators throughout the world.”

X2 will be present at G2E 2010, November 16-18 at booth 2736, Las Vegas Convention Center.
