I got one recently from Mcleods. Super service and fantastic price. I had tried other places but was met with random radio silence or communication issues if I am being honest.
Contact Toby and ask him to give you a call when he next has them in if he is currently out of stock. He will keep you up to date all the way to purchase.
In terms of new spotter products, I do not think there is anything imminently in the pipeline. They have a new Thermion thermal scope which is part of their new stuff but if you want a spotter, the current range is probably going to be your choice for a while.
I have been out with the Thermal at night a fair bit recently. It is such an awesome piece of kit. You wonder how you managed without it. If you do get one, buy an Op/Tech bino strap for it. Quick release and really strong small cord that can fit through the hand strap holes with the hand strap still in situ. Only a tenner on ebay and it has transformed how I use it the last couple of nights.

I was thinking about replacing my thermal XD38 recently but I'm going to hold out for the newer ones due out middle of the year, You won't get anything cheaper at the shooting show in fact from what I seen last year it will be dearer, I looked at various items last year and found it best to test them at the show then look online and they were cheaper.
Be interested to hear how you find it. I'm looking at the same thing

Take a look at pulsars website the new spotter that will be out between April and June is the Axion. I need to take a look through it as I too am in the market for thermal, or at the very least see a comparison video on YouTube against the xq and xp range.
There's no indication of pricing yet.
From what I gather they are stopping making the quantum lite
