Get a decent mount, like the EQ6 (or similar), and be prepared to muck about with the OTA, until you find one that suits your needs. The mount, if it is good enough, will last you while you fine tune the requirements of the tube.
I have done this with the EM200 mount, and currently use a Mewlon 180 (darn nice scope), but will go bigger as soon as I can find someone to take the Mewlon, hint hint.
Depends on a whole bunch of things. The C11 OTA will be nice, but has a decent price tag, and is becoming near the edge of portability.
