Brian, if you want  a GPS logger only it will be a lot cheaper but
will work just for that.
I do use (and I know Ralf does as well) a Garmin GPSMap 60cx which
recently plummeted price.
Garmin eTrex range is known as well to be good devices.

You may want to think about the intended uses of this device, it will
help chosing the good one.
