[OSM-talk] GPS Units for the Foundation

[Etienne]

Mikel
Garmin Geko 201 is available from Amazon.co.uk at £86.02.  Don't know if
this is a competitive price, but if it is then use the link from this page:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Merchandise to earn about 5% for OSM
(which I'm sure we can find a way of getting back to you).
