It's heeeere. The Skywatcher Black Diamond ED100. It comes with a 2 inch diagonal and eyepiece. After 40 years of astronomy this is my first 2 inch eyepiece! It's freaking huge! Hopefully this will make for a good solar and lunar scope at the very least. If not I'm sure the cats will have fun with it. Was on special at Astro Pete's so couldn't resist. I might even put it on a better mount than my 40 year old Tasco EQ. Nah...
