Hm interesting. One of those would make a great grab and go scope, and with the 1.25" focuser means I can reuse my EP's. It'd be which one to go for that would be the problem. I already own an average 60mm refractor with below-average alt-az mount (DSE job). Are the short tubes any good for planets, or wide field only? Maybe the EQ5 would be the ticket, I dont want another crap mount..

I have dark skies about 15mins from my house, and the dob is just too big to cart around for quick viewing sessions (that and the base doesnt fit into the car easily).
