Nikon Binoculars for Astronomy and Nature Watch?

I have been looking at Nikon binoculars but there are too many info to make a decision.

Should I get a 10x50 or 12x50 or 16x50 ? I´d say 16x is better because gives a better magnification but I am worried if it will be too shaky.

Do 16x become too shake for star gazing and nature watch?

SHould I get a Pentax pair of binoculars or a Nikon pair?

I was looking for binoculars, and I found two pairs in my budget range (around 5), the Nikon Binoculars Action Extreme 8x40 for 1, and the Pentax Binoculars PCF WP II 8X40 for 9, so which one is better?

Manchester United were playing Birmingham. The atmosphere there was amazing as was to be expected at the first home game of the season !

We learned from our mistakes form last year and took the Nikon binoculars that we bought a couple of months ago.

What a difference they made, it was great to be able to see expressions on the players on the bench and to see Sir Alex Ferguson in all his glory!
