Thanks for the post, Art.

I've ordered the Pocket Sky Atlast myself few days ago - hopefully it will arrive here soon. Skyatlas 2000.0 is a wonderful atlas - but I hear you, it's bulk! What I would like to mention is that so far my favourite map is Orion's Deepmap 600 - maps done by Wil Tirion, brief description of objects and there are no Sh2-115 alike objects you need 50" to see. Very intiutive, made from plastic paper which does not get wet and it's pretty small too! (I'm not affiliated with Orion in any way.) Simply amazing product!
