You want at least a plossl type eyepiece. There are a few places to get them. Erfles are also nice to have.

The GTO plossls from Hands On Optics
www.handsonoptics.com

Sirius plossls from Orion
www.telescope.com

Scopetronics

Having a shorty 2x barlow would be good to have also. Getting a good quality EP like Panoptic, Nagler, etc. at a short focal length like 5mm to 10mm might be great for planetary veiwing, but they are expensive.

Good luck!
