:D............Couldn't resist the temptation(again!:rolleyes:)

Anyone have any updates on E.T.A. or $$$$ ??:question:

We are still snoring waiting for it. and once again if they havn't addressed the worm wheels its not worth it! you can have a the best car but if you have wooden wagon wheels its just a useless POS. :D In my opinion

Even if the PE was the same, if it handled another 10kg and the movement itself was smoother then I'd be interested.

But yeah, I'd expect some major drive improvements, but who knows? When is the next big astro show?

[Zaps]

Or maybe it will be awesome, a genuine revolution in amateur astronomy. Maybe it will be the ED80 of mounts or even more ground-breaking. Who knows? Nobody has one yet, so it's probably grossly premature to be praising or condemning it.

Meades lx800 shows that it can be done. So ..

Geez...............forgot that I started this thread.......just remembered!:rolleyes:

Well, it's still a mystery eh?
As Poita said, I'd be happy also if it could handle another 10kg or maybe 15kg?, which it probably will.......easily.

If Skywatcher are smart they'll keep the price down and we'll be queing up for them no doubt?

Damn!.................I HATE WAITING!!!!!!;)
