I'd advise spend $239 at Andrews for a pair of the 20 * 80 binoculars and put them on decent tripod and get an adjustable bar stool from office works ~ about his $500 budget, but this way he gets wield field of view, comfortable vision without squinting, dead easy set-up, perfect day/night use, expanding familarity of the night sky and above all without a sore back!
Nothing kills astronomy faster than fatigue or lack of comfort when you want to do prolonged viewing, so first make it comfortable and stress free and it'll last alot longer and be far more enjoyable.
