Losmandy will be releasing the first AZ mount in their Astronomical product line sometime in March. The AZ 8 will have a 35lb load capacity and can be upgraded to GOTO with its Gemini 2 compatibility. It's basically a GM8 turned into AZ form.

Re: New AZ Mount by Losmandy
Looks pretty good and seems to be well constructed
advantage is can be upgraded to Goto..good news for G8 and G11 owners
..but 40 pounds of equipment weight for 35b payload?
