Early yet , noticed it last night on the Meade site , worth to monitor chatter on the Yahoo LX groups before going ahead and dissect the techtalk what the new firmware will improve on .Smartmount is a training function that improves/refines pointing accuracy of the GOTO system , the process involves aligning/centering a list of stars {pg 68 in the Lx200gps manual}.Its more suited to a permanent setup , for a mobile setup you have to go through the process each time you get the scope out .Apart from serious study or faint CCD imaging work i think it would be something you would rarely use .
