Grant,

Regarding your posting concerning Eagle Optics, I have had very good
experiences with them. They are very helpful, courteous and just
plain ol' good folks. When I've been in a rush they've even sent me
things when I told them I'd put a check in the mail the next day.
Try that with a big New York Camera dealer.

As for the zoom eyepiece, its best use is as a paper weight. Don't
cheapen the quality of a great scope with a zoom eyepiece. You
are much better of with *any* of the fixed eyepieces.

Tom
