I'd highly recommend an iOptron Mini Tower.

Comes in a pretty flash looking hard case, runs on AA's, 12vt or mains.
It has GPS, 130,000 object data base, the hand controller is intuitive to use and the large screen makes navigation through the menus easy. Once leveled and aligned (only takes 10min to setup) the GoTo is excellent. Dropping the target within the FOV of a 15mm ep.
You would have to buy a scope to go with it though.
If you're going bush with it a fair bit, I reckon a refractor would suit your purpose best.
