Celestron C70 Mini Mak Spotting Telescope, Black

Q: Would this be a good starter for a 9yr old boy?

Personally, I would think he would get more use from a good set of 10x50 or 10x40 binoculars. I enjoy my binoculars more because you use them more being able to observe more sky area. The telescopes get old because you zero in on a particular spot and with the earths rotation, the spot moves while you observe, can be a pain. Hope this helps.

Q: Will a 2x Barlow lens work acceptably with the adapter and using the original zoom lens? I like the reviews on the Orion model sold on Amazon.

I think you might be pushing it to the limit with a 2X Barlow... at max. zoom, there is already vignettting at the outer edges. I would move on to a bigger scope if you want more magnification, personally. It's a good little scope as it is - pushing it beyond its intended design would be like a Ferrari engine in a VW Bug.

Q: Are grey edges on the outsides of the picture normal? I have a very tiny viewing angle where things look good.

This can be an issue at higher magnification. Image unacceptable at 50x and up.

Q: Is this light enough that it can be used with a 90 degree tripod adapter without toppling over? Will be used from a seated position off to the side

Is very light, it will work with 90 degree tripod
