Yes, it means you can upgrade your hand controler from the files downloaded from Celestron.
I'm also looking to buy this GoTo mount. It seems to be cheapest Go To around. I hope that someone will post review of CGE 5 on this forum.

Orion seems to have released a Goto upgrade for the Skyview pro mount see thread at cloudynights.

If i am not mistaken is not the Orion SVP mount the same as a EQ5.
