Hi Kon,
While wholheartedly joining you in being disappointed, as all of us in the southern hemisphere who like the idea of the SSA have been, there is progress on the southern hemisphere SSA firmware changes, so hang in there.
I know there is progress as I have been helping as a volunteer private beta tester for Southern firmware fixes for the Celestron engineers on my SSA here in New Zealand since before Christmas.
When all the fixes will be finished and ready to release no-one can tell you (or even the private testers) yet, but I can assure you that they are working through fixes for the various southern problems and progress is being made as fast as the very dedicated and busy firmware engineers there can get it done.
You can get more information, and will be able to get early notice of when the southern fixes get released to public beta and then full public release by joining up at the Team Celestron website, which I would urge you to do if you have a strong interest in the SSA.
Cheers,
Chris M

Yes, we don't have it available in Australia because the firmware for the southern hemisphere is not yet available.* You will either want to contact B&H regarding a return, or hold onto the unit until a firmware update is available.* At this time, I do not have an ETA when this update will become available.* Sorry for the inconvenience.Thank you!Alex CaveCelestron Technical Support
