Wow really!? 100 deg! That sounds really exciting. And finally Televue has come up with something new...
Wonder what's the price? Is it one of those things that if you have to ask the price, it will be beyond your reach?

No price information as of yet. Will be more then Naglers for sure... so probably in the $300+ USD range I think.

No time to go this year. But people who go are updating on the group emails. I can always bring a few EPs back this trip home if anyone is interested.
