Let me play among the stars... [telescopes!]

The wife has mentioned a few times some interest in a telescope. By "some interest," I mean every time we see an episode of The Universe or some such, she whines "I wish we had a telescope...." Our anniversary is coming up in a couple months, and I'd like to get one for her. Problem is, I haven't owned a telescope in 20 years, and I have no idea what to look for.

The budget is somewhere below $200 if that's possible. I know the higher price, generally the better telescope, and if I have to go a bit higher, I will. Suggestions?

    Make sure you aim for a telescope with a high light-gathering power. Zoom and other attributes are secondary.
