Red dot finders - advice please

Hi Guys,

After going out and using my Newt I found it pretty difficult to know exactly where I was looking due to the magnification and not being very familiar with the night sky.

I thought that getting a red dot finder would help out so I could get it in the ball park then fine tune with my real finder scope and then finally look through the telescope.
Maybe even get rid of the finder scope all together.

I would just like to know if this is a good idea and if it has worked well in your experience.

If so, which red dot would you recommend?

Thanks, Matt
