Many are waiting for the arrival of the new 16" Lightbridge. I was hoping someone from Meade could give us some insight as to when the units are expected to arrive and what the expectations will be with respect to primary mirror quality? Specifically, has Meade imposed minimum performance requirements on the manufacturer? I think it goes without saying there is excitment about this new telescope but many are waiting for the first reviews before making the purchase. It is hopeful that the construction is sturdy and functional and the mirrors above average.

Roger

I just received my 16" Lightbridge today. Height of eyepiece at zenith is 67 3/4" from ground to center of eyepiece. Meade did a great job on this scope and I can't wait to put it to use. It was well worth the time it took to get it.
