Have a read of this: tinyurl.com/2ewf7f

Appears that 10 new products will be launched early next year by a company in Tuscon, Arizona - same place as where Coronado operated from. Appears to have Andy Lunt on board too. I wonder if this is a company formed by the former employees of Coronado? - I can only speculate for now.

Good news for all us! :) :)

Potentially another blow for Meade. How many more punches can that company take before it has to be taken over by Jinghua Optical Co. the same way that Synta had to buy out Celestron to keep it in business?

That is good news. I know my facts are sketchy, but it was disappointing to hear first that Meade bought out Coronado, then Meade discontinuing some 'Coronado' products. It was a good little independent name amongst the giants out there.

I wonder how they are doing the etalon since Coronados etalon patented design is now owned by Meade.
