Looks like a classic design - several companies used to have on with 
the same single pole design.  Amie once picked up a Moss tent like 
that at a garage sale for something like C$10! Gave it away :-(

Now that's a cool tent.  I like the length - 2.4m.  It was obviously 
designed by someone that understands that not everyone is 5'7" tall.
A tad pricey at A$400 (US$316 or C$420).
