That's real disappointing. I would have hope that in such an important year in amateur astronomy, that the people of Celestron would have put more effort into a small scope which many newcomers would have been attracted to as an introductory telescope.
Surely it cannot be that hard to make a inexpensive scope for a beginner that actually works? Even if it is a cardboard tube! With the high quality products coming out of China today, it would be achievable. It looks like it was designed and marketed by a committee with no thought gone into it. I suspect not one single amateur astronomer had any input into this instrument.
Thanks for your review, Steve.
