Having played with the simulator for this autoguider, its simular but less control than Meades old 201XT autoguider. The main fault with the 201xt and this autoguider is you cant see the guide star and its very difficult to get good focus as you are working blind. Sorry - I see less advantages of with this than the TVGuider (http://foto.astronomy.cz/TVGuider.htm) previously mentioned in these forums. Several IIS people have them and the only downside is that you have to get on a waiting list as Martin Mylivesic only makes about 15 units every 3 months. But they are well worth it - its stand alone and worked faultlessly for me since Ive had it.
