Anyone seen one of the 5000 series?

Any word yet on what "long eye relief" actually means?

Any specs out anywhere on size and weight?

Any speculation on whether the 60 degree Plossls will have anything
other than slush & mush for the outer 10 degrees?

IF they don't, watch Radian prices fall like a stone.
There are three things I want to know about these new
eyepieces:
1. Are the Plossls any good?
2. Are the Superwides as good as Panoptics?
3. Are the Ultrawides as good as what Meade now has?
