I can't find anywhere in the main book that lists the cost of Passkeys. Am I stupid or is it missing? How cost effective are these little pieces of hardware?

Would Lone Star be able to equip all vehicles, drones, terminals, patrol commlinks, and detectives' work commlinks to carry one? How hard is it for a corporation to keep track of what all their employees are doing with their passkey?

Basically, is it fair to say that all the A-Rated corps and up would have passkey only access to their nodes?
