Hi Adam,
I totally agree with Darrens (wombat) post above. Come along on the 16th - 19th of this month to the Astronomy Camp at Snake valley. It is a great way to see all sorts of set-ups in use, ask a zillion questions, get to use some of the gear (I'll have a 12" available for you to use too, and you can try out my EQ6 with GoTo), and meet like-minded folk.
There is also a talk on Astrophotography which will help you immensely.
You don't have to stay all 4 nights, but the more time you get researching and testing with equipment in one place (and the owners of the gear explaining its good & bad points) will help you in a big way before you make your decision.
