Gday Brian

It appears about a dozen are out in the US,
but deliveries appear to be very slow/delayed.
Several firsthand reports have come in recently
so i suggest if you want more details
you look at the Yahoo LX80 group
or the Cloudy Nights "Mounts" forums,
as they seem to have the most active comments.
( Note! On the CN thread you will have to wade through a lot
of doom and destruction posts due to the constant delays etc,
but there are some useful reviews inbetween )
