For those looking in this area, this is a great mount to consider with the A$ so strong:

From all I've read (alas I've never played with one in person) they are great mounts. However, I thought they were currently unavailable until: (1) the new Gemini MK. II units become available, and (2) enough orders come in to make it a sufficiently profitable endeavor for Larry to start up production again. I'd be happy to be wrong but the message on their website suggests that I'm not <http://www.mountaininstruments.com/>.

Indeed a great mount and price..but...can you get the Gemini ATM? I think they (Losmandy mounts and others) are all delayed due to the impending release of the new Gemini?

Which no doubt should be worth while.

Correct I am on the list (wouldl ove to send $$$$ now) Larry won't accept any, so have exchanged for Us $ on Friday to hedge against a Au $ fall :thumbsup:
The alternative an AP1200 is around $10K Us $

All true Michael, but nothing is a bargain unless you really need it.
