Looks like a nice little unit for outdoor use.  But I see that it doesn't 
support an external antenna, which I think I'd probably need in a big pickup 
truck with a aluminum sided camper behind and above the cab.  Sure would 
seem great for cycling though.

But I can't beleive the prices on EBay... almost up to the $100 point. GPSs 
must retain a pretty good value.
