Helwett-Packard attempts to create a wireless computing world with the launch of the Elite x2 1011 G1, a tablet hybrid that packs a lot of ultraportability.

Despite the long name that’s quite a bother to pronounce, this 11.6-inch hybrid, which has Windows 8.1 Pro in tow, packs an Intel Core M processor and an option to choose between a configuration of 720p or 1080p display screens. It also supports drawing with a Wacom pen, and like the Elite Folio 1020 unveiled last month, it passed through passed rigorous military-grade tests which include drops, shocks, and exposure to extremes of temperature and humidity, and high pressure testing.

HP also teased in its press conference the future of wireless computing. According to PCWorld, HP used the tablet, connected to the dock, to beam images wirelessly and produce outputs with a printer without the need for HDMI, USB, or DisplayPort cables. The power keyboard dock which does this magic is based on WiGig, a wireless connection reportedly offers ulti-gigabit speeds (up to seven times faster than 802.11ac WiFi), low latency, and security-protected connectivity.
