I was thinking of getting one of these solar powered GPS receivers for my
son:

http://www.qstarz.com/Products/GPS%20Products/BT-Q1200-F.htm

My Qstarz receiver (BT-810) is super reliable and quite rugged enough for
Primary School children. I haven't seen the PC interface for the new models.
Their agent in the UK is Mark Hsu: mark at hsuul.com - I got my GPS receiver
from him via eBay a while ago and was impressed with his rapid and helpful
service I am sure he would let you test the software on some kids if you
asked nicely.

All the best

Paul Y
