If you could get the 8" reflector Dennis mentioned you would still be happier with that in the long run if it was the only thing that was important to you. You mention the idea of liking portability. If the portability is more important to you than the views, then the Mak would not be a bad choice given the type of scope and Maks generally being good for viewing planets.
If the Mak is almost 4 times more expensive than the reflector you first mentioned you should be able to swing that 8" reflector which now gives you two main choices to make on purchasing a scope, portability or aperture.
