I'm looking to buy a used Garmin Etrex or Etrex Legend. Something cheap for the kids to use, maybe in the $50 price range.

If an of you have an older GPS you want to get rid of, or are looking to upgrade, let me know.

I know geomatrix has a yellow etrex. I think the page button cover came off though so it's tricky to change screen pages (a techie minded person could probably rig up some kinda fix for it). If you're interested I can check with him. I'm guessing it'd fall well under your $50 range.

This is really for my 4 year old, not so technically minded, I think I'd rather get one that has all the buttons working.

Thanks

Ever think of a geko 101 for her. I think I found a web site that had them new for $55. I wil have to look for the site though.

No, I hadn't considered that. I used to have a eTrex Legend that she used, so she was familiar with hit, but it broke and I upgraded to a GPS Map 76CX, now I just was looking for something cheap that she could use. If you find the link let me know I'd be willing to consider that.

Can you upload waypoints to a Geko? I still have my data cable for the Legend, so I was planning on uploading data to the eTrex to save time.
