Well, my wife should be there on Friday as well....if I can haul her away from her friends in NYC. If not in the morning she will see me in the evening. Set up is going to be a little different this year. I think you all will like it. No produts, just holograms. No tables, just sofas. Maybe a roller coaster.

1. 150mm FPL 53 Triplet f/6.7 It will not be inexpensive. Economy of scale comes into play. We are looking around $5000 or so, probably closer to six as the production model will have a Feather Touch focuser.

2. 110mm f/6 Quad. No price yet.

3. 60mm f/7 FPL 51 triplet.

4. New product line is Intes Micro.

6" triplet apo, 110mm version of the AT65Q, and a 60mm triplet.
Mike, you have a real way with making me itch to buy!

A lot of people have been waiting for something like this. An f/7 is just short enough to be manageable. :cool:

And then you spring this one on me. :bow: :bow: Make mine a Mak-Newt (7 or 8 inch). :D

Awesome news - I'll see you at NEAF.

Ready for NEAF.

Color is white and Aston Martin Grey. We will have to run a special anodize run with Feather Touch, fingers crossed, for the 150.

We should have the 7 and 8" Mak Newt at NEAF. I think we will have around 8 different IM models there.

Hi Mike, so production model AT150 f/6.7 equips with FT3545?

Is there any news about 6" version of TMB SS?

Looking forward to NEAF.

Production models will have the FeatherTouch. Not really sure it is needed and the cost really shoots through the roof.

Please try to have a few at the show, available with show-pricing, so some of us can cart them home :grin:

Mike, will the 150 f/6.7 OTA be short enough to accomodate a premium binoviewer without using OCA?

Another question: is Astro Telescopes available in China?

Your help is greatly appreciated, -- William
