I have a Vista HCx but the HC is probably what you want and battery life is
meant to be
about 20+ hours which seems about right, also has a memory slot so you can add
upto 1-2Gb
of external memory (good for data logging)..
you might like to look at a Blue tooth GPS if you have a PDA too.
I'd prefer to use one that somebody else has used so I know it will be
suitable for OSM. Any suggestions?
I bought a DG-100 at the Map Shop in Adelaide:

They must have been practicing for mapping the runway at Gibraltar - at
least they got that one right.
The latest Sensis mapping has that error but the latest Navteq ones don't -
Strange.

Thanks Liz - it's now fixed.
I'm interested to see where that No left turn in Binalong is. After some
horrible experiences with Teleatlas maps in the US (and Sensis here), to do
with one way streets and missing turn restictions, I have multiple bees

Interesting. Just been checking out suburban intersections in
Canberra using GSV and while you can often find the signpost, you can
rarely read the street names on them. Sometimes on a narrow street T-

to the sign, you can

I'm looking for a new GPS, optimised for OSM data collection. As
such, long battery life would be a plus (that's the main problem with
my current one). High accuracy is good, but I'm not looking for one
