Reviewers say that the Garmin eTrex Venture HC offers the most bang for the buck for those looking for a low-cost handheld GPS receiver. Unlike other inexpensive handheld GPS receivers, the eTrex Venture HC comes with a color screen and a high-sensitivity signal processor. The memory, though limited to just 24 MB, can save up to 10 tracks, 50 routes and 500 waypoints. You won't find features such as a barometric altimeter or a compass at this price point, of course, though some higher-end -- and equally liked -- members of the eTrex series, such as eTrex Summit HC (*Est. $175) add those and are equally competent. The included maps aren't the most detailed, reports say, but you can add other maps (at a price, of course) if you find it insufficient for your needs. If you have a bigger budget, the DeLorme PN-40 (*Est. $340) has unbeatable accuracy, tons of high-end features, and access to terrific maps, but mastering all of its power takes more of a commitment from its user.
