Hi,

(1) The Meade DSI is USB not serial.

(2) One thing you should definately get is a shutter release so you can go more than 30 second exposures.

(3) How are you planning on guiding. Yes, the meade DSI will work with PhD via a USB cable but how will you talk to the mount. You need an ST4 interface which is best supplied by Shoestring, i.e GPUSB.

Cheers
Paul
