I've been looking into getting a Garmin Oregon Handheld GPS like this one:

What do you all think about it? Any pros/cons?

here is a place you can get it for less. there is a 50 $ rebate too

I like these guys because they have no shipping and no tax charged.

go take a look at one in person, these things are smaller than they look. I went to an REI to look at a 550 and was amazed at how small it really was.

one con that I am aware of is that the T version have a topography map for hiking but don;t come with the city navigator maps so you can;t use them as a regular GPS so figure you have to spend an additional 99$ on additional maps.

biggest Pro is that these take regular AA batteries.
