Dean,
You should really consider the small maks and schmidt cassegrain as Alexander suggested: these are very compact and of good quality.
Compactness means you'll be at ease observing from your balcony and it also will be easy to carry when you want to go under a dark sky.
A 10" on a balcony?? FORGET IT! Seriously. I suggest you go to a shop and see the size of a 10" dob! It is WAY bigger than what you think. On a balcony, there is no way you are going to be comfortable using it.
My 2 cents.
