Hi Matt,
if you don't want cables and want to go wireless you can use Bluetooth to serial adapter. It costs $120 with rechargeable battery and around $70 if you find a way to supply power to it. There should be some way to do it.
If your laptop has built in Bluetooth this adapter the only thing you'll need, if it doesn't you can buy a bluetooth dongle for extra $10-15.
When used with EQMOD and without a mount hand controller you will aslo need an EQDIR module by shoestring($35) or you can connect this adapter to the hand controller using a cable supplied with your mount and use direct PC mode.
I'm using the first combination(w/o HC) with EQMOD and a rechargeable bluetooth to serial adapter for 6 months and it works fine for me.
You can find these adapters being made by different companies and they're also sold on ebay. I'm using Aircable SERIAL3X made by aircable.net
cheers,
Mike
