You can buy a lot of telescope for that kind of money.
I'd rather have the telescope (sorry not an APO or Mak or SCT but a high quality RF Newtonian Astrograph or a fast Cassegrain and maybe a couple more Canon EF L style fast telephotos) and make do with my 40D and XD5. I already have a mount that I reckon is the bee's knees when it comes to "portable" GEMs (my brand spanking new Atlux).
