D'oh!
Well Chris, I have this particular model of Meade telescope, and I can tell you it is usable to see the moon and planets. It's very sensitive to slight movement (image shakes). The declination and right ascension controls are not as smooth as I'd care for, and they are a bit too fast. The finder scope is a bit of a PIA to get/keep lined up. I have some folded up paper between the front part of the finder scope mount and the telescope tube to get it lined up. Still, this telescope does work. You and your son can have fun with it.
