    Was out this am as well (4:30 am under clear skies in Preston MN.)  Found the comet at 30 degrees E about 20 degrees (coma) above the horizon.  Couldn't see it at first with naked eye but sweeping with my 7 x 50 Orion Scenix binoculars allowed me and my wife to have a great view.  The coma and tail almost filled the 7.1 degree fov of the binocs.  Have to agree with ellenvega it's a very nice comet.  Look forward to those pictures Mike and others will take!
