Amazon has the Celestron SkyScout for $199 (after $100 mail in rebate which requires purchase by June 15, 2008). Use the Celestron SkyScout to locate over 6,000 stars. The cool part of this device is the built in GPS. Simply point the SkyScout at any star and click the target button. The SkyScout tells you the star that you’re looking at. The fun doesn’t stop there though. There’s a built-in SD card slot that allows for an optional Sky Tour audio presentation that will guide you through an audiovisual presentation of the stars. The Amazon price is about $100 (not including the additional $100 rebate) than the price I could find elsewhere, making it a good Father’s Day deal.
