Ah, a welcome cohort. well done. I have had the a700 for a while now, since they came out, and honestly, it is a great camera.
The only snag with anything other than mainstream is the availability of software as RG pointed out.
In my case, when I use the a700, I have a cheap e bay timer/intervalometer, and just pre-program a series of exposures.
The a77 is a fine looking camera and teamed with a couple of Zeiss primes would be great for astro use.
I am having as much fun more lately with the Fuji X-Pro1. Same deal, no software, and even worse, it has a completely manual cable release socket, so an intervalometer/timer won't work (well I haven't found one yet).
Enjoy it.
