Cool 32mm - 42mm EP for wider views

Hi guys,

I'm after a cheap 32-42m EP. I want one just to help me find objects easier. The wider the FOV the better. The more stars i can fit in it, the easier it will be for me to tell where i am and what I'm looking at, and where I want to move to. It will only be used as my initial EP for finding things, so I figure it would be a waste to spend LOTS of $$$ on it. Any suggestions on a low power EP, widest FOV possible, cheap cost???

I've been looking at these...

Meade Series 4000 QX 36mm Wide Angle (2") - $179 - 70deg. FOV
Bintel SuperView 30mm (2") - $79 - 68deg. FOV
Meade Series 4000 Super Plössl 40mm (1.25") - $109 (no idea what the FOV is)
Meade Series 4000 Super Plössl 56mm (2") - $159 (no idea what the FOV is)
OT30mm Ultra-Wide 2-inch Eyepiece - $129 - 80deg. FOV

Thanks.
