you just need a Dob Driver II.  works wonderfully, then you don't have to 
rush to change EPs at high power :)  the DD2 takes a bit to get on the 
correct speed/track for an object but once you get it (at low power) you're 
set to go high-power and stay right on track.  and i've found that once i 
track 1-2 objects, i can usually center just about anything within 90 
degrees of the last object and just track the new one automatically.
