I really really like the official Daimler Xentry TAB+ System with the optional HMS990 oscilloscope accessory (this is VERY useful for tracing CANbus issues and sensors). It includes both the touchscreen unit and the Xentry interface module, called Xentry Connect all in one (no more big laptop to lug around since it's all wireless too).
Info: http://autodevice.net/image/data/docs/xentry_kit_sd.pdf

You can order it from Daimler directly via this order form:
http://www.startekinfo.com/StarTek/o...tedDocId=26252
$31,594 plus tax. Certified funds only. Includes 22 individual updates (which is probably more than a year's worth).


Comes with:
· Xentry Tab+ with power supply adapter
· Xentry Connect multiplexer + power supply adapter
· Ethernet connecting cable (5m)
· Multiplexer to vehicle connecting cable (8-pin)
· Multiplexer to vehicle connecting cable (14-pin)
· Multiplexer to vehicle connecting cable (16-pin)
· Multiplexer to vehicle connecting cable (38-pin)
· Xentry Control software update DVD
· Xentry Connect software update BD DVD
· Xentry Kit e-training CD
· Blu-ray disc drive+ power supply adapter+ USB Y cable
· User Guide
· Handbook for Xentry System Users
· 3 help cards
· Panasonic safety information
· Xentry Connect numbering kit
· HMS 990 USB Measurement Technology hardware (including power supply, battery
connecting cable with alligator clips, adapter for cigarette lighter, scope lead and
two multimeter test leads, alligator clip and probe)
· Carrying case
