At Smarter.com, we aim to ensure we give you the most sound buying advice possible. With our 'Cumulative Product Rating' system, in order for a product to receive a rating score, it must have a minimum number of ratings to qualify.

This system is not intended to diminish the value of products with a low number of ratings and reviews, they're great, and hopefully very helpful, but if you want our advice, we want to make sure that the product you're thinking of buying has been rated and reviewed by enough shoppers like you to be a valuable indicator of product quality.

Love it. I've used it many times already and have had no problems with it. Helps me find sky objects to view with my 10" Dob.

From: Amazon Posted: Jun 25, 2008 Type: User Review Fantastic with a gripe not yet mentioned

Before I go into my gripe, I must say the Skyscope is so much fun, I love it. I am not going to give a complete review because I agree with most reviews like the battery life and slow to lock on to a satelite but it's worth putting up with that...

From: Amazon Posted: Jun 21, 2008 Type: User Review An expensive high tech gear, but it really works!

I bought this Skyscout Personal Planetarium last week when Amazon listed it in the golden box, plus the $100 rebate (which had ended now) made it a real good deal.
I was a little worry after reading some reviewers said it wouldn't work...

From: Amazon Posted: Apr 30, 2008 Type: User Review GPS Hardware error

Like others I've seen here, mine was Dead on Arrival. It turned on but gave me the "GPS hardware problem." I contacted customer service by email (was on hold too long on their toll-free number.) They gave me a return authorization within 24...

From: Amazon Posted: Mar 23, 2008 Type: User Review Forget It

I had never been so disappointed in a product. The advertisements and reviews swayed me to purchase the product. I have a great interest in astronomy so I could hardly wait to get the Celestron SkyScout. Setting up the program on the computer was...

From: Amazon Posted: Mar 15, 2008 Type: User Review Star gazer

I have always wanted a way to map the stars and learn more about them, and this gadget really works. It does not magnify anything, just points you in the right direction, so you still need a good pair of binoculars or a telescope and a celestial...

From: Amazon Posted: Feb 29, 2008 Type: User Review Feels like a quality piece but mine arrived dead with GPS error.

This looked and felt great as I unpacked it from it's box for the first time. It feels solidly constructed, was heavier than I expected, and was not cheap feeling at all.

Trouble is, it won't even boot up all the way. After...

From: Amazon Posted: Feb 20, 2008 Type: User Review It's Amazing!

The idea is genius - marry a GPS with an accelerometer and create a device that can tell you exactly what star it is pointing at, or direct you to any visible star. And it pretty much works as advertised. We've used ours on several nights so far,...
