Hi Guys!
I teach middle school and am looking to purchase some handheld GPS units for my kids to use mostly on my school's campus, but also on field trips. I would like to keep the cost per unit under $150. Any suggestions?
Also, I live in Port St Lucie, FL and am wondering if anyone is near by who would be willing to work with me to set up a short course on my campus.
Thanks for any help!

How about going with compasses instead? A lot more kids would get something in their own hands that way.
For $150, you won't have too much choice (assuming you have to buy new units), with the Garmin eTrex probably being the best known (and most popular) around that cost.
