Im a newbie too and have relied on these guys to guide my choice of eyepieces. Also check out the reviews on cloudynights.com for your shortlist.
I've got an 8" dob but have gone for lightweight eyepieces which should go well with an 80mm too. (which i may just invest in for taking on holidays)
Im waiting on a Pentax XF8.5 ($239) and a Denkmeier 21mm (on special at frontieroptics for $199 - normally $249 US)
Both lightweight, great FOV and some very glowing reviews/comparisons.
If you have the chance to try before you buy, then do it though
