Well, after some consideration and some finacial commitment, I invested in 2 new GPS units!
I have been wanting a Geko 201 for the lightweight, small size and WAAS feature to improve accuracy over my older ETrex basic, non-WAAS model. So, I ordered one and just recieved it today. I was impressed with the tiny size and feather weight of the thing. One feature I don't care for is you have to do a waypoint "mark" to get your present location. I may just need to play with the setup menu more to overcome that. It does sort of force you into actually navigating with it. That was something I have never done, just used the location feature to verify my location.
Number 2 unit is a Garmin GPSMap60C. I looked at a friend's 60CS and loved all the features and the color display. It was not one I had considered before due to the weight and size, although it is just 7 ounces. The antenna is way better than a patch type and the features are mind boggling. That one will surely take some training to realize all the capabilities and utilize them efficiently.
I never go out without my trusty old Silva Ranger, a map and some plotters and still prefer to rely on the old fashioned method of navigation. It has no battery dependecies! I sure like where GPS has evolved in the past 10 years. My next vehicle will have one even though I have never considered it before. The problem is, I will not need another vehicle for a long time. The Map60C will be my nav tool for the road until then.
Just thought I would share my overspending with you all

Maybe a later model?? 
After a few days consideration, I decided to call the place I ordered it from and change to a GPSMAP60Cx which is the brand new baby with removable MicroSD memory. It comes with a 64MB card but I am going to order a 256 for $40 US so I will quadruple the amount of maps I can load into it. I should get the GPS unit by Monday and it shipped already, for sure! I will let everyone know how it is when I get it and play with it a bit. BTY, since I first bought a GPS in 1991, I have only used the "where am I" function and still prefer to navigate via map and Silva compass. I am going to finally try out the nav by GPS realm and learn how to use all the bells and whistles. I will still always be a map and compass person but now will include the GPS into the nav. I have too, it cost me a bunch
