Paul,

The new Celestron series sounds very attractive. Good optics and electronics make a good combination. The best of luck.

That's what I'm thinking, of course Celestron optics have been pretty good (generally) for the past couple of years. I also see they have scrapped the carbon-fiber tube for Aluminum too.

Interesting advertisement. It doesn't look like they changed/ improved the optics any, but a lot of electronic redesign.
