$1000 to spend - Help!!!

Hi All,
I've just come into money!!
I've got $1000 to spend on a telescope.
I'm seeking suggestions from the members of this forum as to the best buys in Oz at present.
All types of scope are acceptable.
I was looking at a good quality small refractor (WO Zenithstar 80) through to large Dob.
I would love to do some beginners astrophotography down the line but I love the big scope "Wow" factor too - so I'm undecided between an EQ mounted scope or a Dob for purely visual
Any thoughts greatfully accepted.
Gear at present - 15x70 binos and a cheapish Optex camera tripod.
Ready,Steady...
Cheers

Doug
