I have a Meade 10" LX-200 and am generally very satisfied with it. However, I find the rear-cell thread and eyepiece holder rather flimsy. They often come loose when the diagonal mirror is rotated.

On page 23 of the June 2001 issue of Astronomy magazine there is an ad for a substitute device called "Virtual View II" . The ad claims that the device will securely attach a diagonal or camera to the back of a Meade or Celestron SCT. Since it is rather pricey ($139 plus shipping), I would like to know if anyone has any expeiece with this item.

Merci d'avance.
