I highly recommend one of these gadgets if you don't want to lug around a laptop.
There's been many times when I haven't had time to set up the full show so I grab the camera, my TC-80N3 timer and tripod.
I've hardly used anything else for camera control.
Until I build a perm observatory I will continue to use this great little device although I will eventually go fully computerised when I have a permanent setup.
If you can get a cheaper version Josh I'd highly recommend getting one.
