If you're big on Vixens and using them with Barlows... try and have a look at the 22mm LVW.

I'm also not sure how well these EPs barlow?

Care to comment John B?

I would love a panoptics too. Budget doesn't quite extend that far. Maybe if I wait a little longer.

I haven't had any luck seeing DSO's yet. What size EP should I use and does anyone have a good star chart? I have the Jan/Feb Sky and Telescope and have been using that thus far.

I would also like to get a good astronomy book too. I have seen a few around and don't know what they are like. Does anyone have any recommendations?

CJMarsh, a bit off-topic to ask about books in this thread.. please create a new thread in a different forum so that people can share info about books.

If you are talking about M42 yes I think I have seen it. Is it the one that looks like a cloud with a couple of stars behind it?
