[OSM-talk] Recommended GPS for logs for OSM *and* for vehicle - is there such a beast?

[Mike Collinson]

Greg,

I hope you don't mind me doing a quick plug for OSM fund raising but if you use Storage Depot, (see http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Merchandise ) or the special UK Amazon link on the same page, a proportion of your purchase goes to the Foundation.  Amazon UK has links to a number of independent GPS device suppliers.  To be honest I don't know if the commission applies with them too, but I bought a sub-£200 Garmin Etrex Legend HCx for OSM maps recently and believe I got a reasonable price.
