I agree with Daryl, lOng perng make William optics telescopes which are of good quality - don't think you would go wrong with the $149 spot scope, you could point it at the stars if need be, probably would not see a great deal.
I had the andrews 70mm mak/Cass scope, which I think was a bit of a bargain at $99, it sat on any photo tripod and gave crisp terrestrial views, with the optional eyepece I could see the rings of saturn, and on a really good night some color detail on jupiter (as well as making out the galilean moons)
You also wouldn't go wrong with a good set of binos - 10x50 is probably the standard choice, I have some 7x50's which are great either terrestrial/astronomical viewing
