From everything I have read and seen plus given the reports in this thread it just backs up that the AT is most likely the portable widefield mount of choice, I don't think I have yet to hear a bad word about it.
With that said however I have considered this and don't think it's the mount for me, at least not just yet. Although I can't really say I have any experience of the mount.

But then I have no want to put anything larger than a dslr and lens on it. The Pentax system looks good but that would require a change of camera kit. The losmandy doesn't look portable enough and the toast is just too expensive.
Basically my mind has settled on the Vixen Polarie and I don't think I can be talked out of it, it offers supreme portability given it's not much bigger than an old VHS tape and the results I have seen are every bit impressive.
