Hi Jay, 

The GPS devices are really great and also cheap if you don't have to have
all the bells and whistles that are available.

Be advised that all GPS will indicate proper compass function while moving.
Not all will indicate proper compass function when stationary.

Even the lowest base models are capable of interfacing with a computer and
external power source (and many free third party programs) and if you do
that you get some high end results without the high end price.

Garmin eTrex (yellow case, base model) is the cheapest I have located. Aldi
currently sells these for $80

Energetically and sometimes directionally challenged,

HI all,

Say was wondering if anyone is using a GPS instead of a compass these  
days?
And on the same idea, for altitude vs barometer?

If so what models?

Thanks,

jay
