again, you are right. a guy should know what he is buying, that is why i
am surprised that the celestron site gives absolutely no information on
what the unit actually is. who would buy it for $400 on the info given?
its not mentioned what the aperture is or what the magnification is if
any. both of those are important if shopping for either a telescope
sighting device or a small handheld scope. i am left with the knowledge
that it has gps navigation and a bad-ass database but you had to tell me
that it was just a robotic telrad. how did YOU know? do you have one?
perhaps you know if it is mountable like a telrad or is it only a
handheld teaching aid? if its not fitted with facilities to mount it to
a scope then they sure missed the boat. more people would buy it as a
sight for their existing scope than as a teaching aid. hmmmm........ all
of this should of been covered on the website. thats where we got
started, with an incomplete description by the manufacturer!
