I agree with Bojan. Let me explain why. If you look at the price of the handheld computers for telescopes you will find so many devices like the ones from Meade, Skywatcher or any other (around $250 dollar mark) would be half price of ArgoNavis handheld copmuter. At the same time I understand that they are mass produced and probably thats why they are cheaper.

You can nowadays buy brand new laptops for under 500 bucks.

Dont get me wrong, ArgoNavis is a great product, but in my opinion the price for its computer is too high. I would buy one if it wasn't that expensive. Its hard for me to jastify the price for it when I can buy small laptop instead and build EKs box for under 30 bucks and have full srceen and many other options that Argo will not have.

cheers
