Funny you say you would get a goto EQ mount..that is still an option for me, I can get this for much cheaper price and possibly add GPS for as little as $600extra at a later date.

Then I wouldn't have to worry about extra's such as a wedge.
I may sound desperate and come to think of it probably am, but most retailers dont have any scopes that I like in stock and wont be available for approx a month anyway, I have definetly decide to get a new scope so that is confirmed...but what I have found from reading these forums, is they are all as good as each other as long as use them...when I started the post I was expecting someone to jump in say buy this but from what I have learned their is many types and many brands that can do the job, so I am going to take a step back and look at wider range...may even look at just a goto EQmount for my Dob? time will tell.
If I was to buy a new Scope I would love to purchase this of A.S.S.T Norman park which is the group that I am viewing with on the 16th January 2005...but he only deals with Celestron not Meade, he has his own shop and is always so helpful....I can gain much experience and information of this group and would feal much more comfortable purchasing off then some unkown retailer that dont care about their customers..just the purchase, as you all know I am noob so I need guidance.
