Iknow, doesn't it look nice. No more wire catch ups. Now all they need it to make the microfocuser wireless and change the power port positions.

be sure you don't turn on the tv, video, or look out for garage doors opening when you press the buttion to goto acrux or M42!!

Or you could place it in your pocket, bend over or bump something and set the scope into a spin!!

Whats wrong with good old fashoned cord wrap anyway?

Just as well they don't make it for the LX90's. But I suppose it's just a matter of time... then I'll have to spend MORE money!

If it's anything like the remote control for my TV, it is bound to get lost on the first night! You would hope the designers have some sort of alarmbell to track it down if it is mislaid.

I'm pretty happy with mine being attached to the scope. Less room for user loser!

Hope they have different frequencies or star parties will be fun!
then again how cool would it be having half a dozen LX200's dancing around the skies in unison

I'm thinking more of a waltz. Strauss' Blue Danube
