Meade mySKY Plus

Sorry if I'm stepping on any toe's by changing the thread for a quick question. I noticed that the Meade mySky Plus is a lot cheaper than when I was able to keep up with everything a couple years back. My Question is: Has anyone here used one and how is it's accuracy? It look's like it would be fun to mess with and actually learn a little something. I appreciate any help or advice I could get. Regard's, Darrell

I've seen some that worked well, and all too many that did not. And that's the problem (that and the build quality). I'd get a Celestron SkyScout if I were interested in something like this. I have one that I use with my students and for various observing tasks (Is that Polaris in the dusk; which one is 'Rashalhague'?) and it's been quite reliable _and_ useful.
