100mm ED refractors

Hi,

I'm starting to get my head around what's available for around $1000 in 4" ED refractors. My starting point has been the skywatcher ED100, currently around $1200.

From what I've been able to gather, the Saxon, SkyWatcher and Orion OTA's are the same. Is this correct?

If so, does anyone know if there is a difference in optics quality between the Saxon ED100 and the ED100DS (the DS has a finder scope and is $180 more...)?

here are links to both:

Cheers

Stephen
