Hi CC
We actually own something similar: Bushmaster Super Zoom-Zt3090. Bought this cheap for the wife a couple of years ago for looking at birds etc. It actually does a pretty good job for what it is. It's definitely only made for terrestrial viewing though. (It has an inverting lens built in)
I did try it out on some planets & moon etc naturally. I was quite suprised at the view of the moon. On jupiter & saturn, well not very good. Some deep sky objects were ok like the orion nebula & omega centauri. See the moon pic taken thru it.
The fact remains that you will get better views in a bigger & better quality scope. I can't see saturn quite as good as janoskiss's picture through mine BTW.
