Looking at getting a gps. Wanting somthing accurate, not so bulky and reasonable on the price. I see alot of people use the hand held ones. I run the coast and a few lakes quiet often and would like to record my trails... any preferences?

Any Garmin is pretty good. Just depends how much you want to spend and how fancy you want it.

hmm. Looked at the echoMAP 43dv it's a smaller one with a fixed mount. Seems like a good deal.
