You won't be disappointed with the dob (unless you're planning on astrophotography - then you will). It's a great way to be able to see a huge amount of stuff and they are easy to use (especially with a Telrad or similar). Bear in mind the mount is undriven and whatever you are looking at drifts across your view (pretty quickly at high magnification too). It doesn't take long to get used to 'nudging' the tube in the right direction though.
I agree with Rob about the 6 mm eyepiece (I assume this is in addition to others? The 6 mm on it's own would be useless), the 6 mm standard plossl is awful to use, your eye has to pretty much touch the glass and the eye lens is tiny. Plus, about 50% of nights the seeing will be inadequate for the magnification it provides).
