John,

You need a refractor on an alt/az mount.

This type of scope can show craters on the moon, Jupiter's bands and moons, Saturns rings, + bright nebula, double stars, etc.

If you can stretch your price, there is lovely Willam Optics Megrez for sale on ebay right now. Buy this type of scope and you will not need to upgrade three months after purchase.
