I've been looking for a telescope for some time and am on a bit of a budget and have a couple of constraints.

While I was interested in an 8" Dobsonian mounted Newtonian, I also want a goto or tracker for convenience and also a concern I have re a tremor I have which makes using Binoculars near impossible, and presumarly would affect 'driving' a scope?

So..I'm looking for something that will collect a decent amount of light, preferably have goto or tracking and something that is more for viewing rather than astrophotography.

I have a budget up to $800 however I've seen on sites like Andrews that items such as goto Dobs (8") are around $1400.

Thoughts are welcome. I also appreciate spending to a budget can cause the purchase to not deliver a decent viewing experience.
