Okay, I don't really "need" one so much as I want one. But I think they'd be cool gadgets to take along on hunts and hiking trips. There's just something neat about being able to instantly know your precise Lat/Lon to within a few feet. I've been toying with getting one of these for years, but always kept putting off buying one. But now the time seems right.
That said, as with all cool gadgets, there seems to be an almost endless amount of choices. I probably don't need one of the really fancy units with color screen and mapping software. All I desire is something that gives an accurate position fix (even when in thick forests) and shows me the time/distance/direction to navigate from Point A to Point B when I set up routes and such.
So what models should I be taking a look at?
