£157.49
looks pretty good
can put OSM maps on it
The price on Amazon has been up and down between £178 and £157 a few
times over the last week or so. See this price tracker:

I might see if Go Outdoors will price match it - they say they will beat
the lower price by 10%, which would make the Etrex 30 £141 (plus £5 for
a discount card if you don't have one).
Amazon also have the Etrex 20 for £127, which seems a decent price.
The differences are it lacks a compass, barometric altimeter, and
support for heart rate, cadence, temperature sensors etc. So the Etrex
20 will be just as useful for most OSM mapping / surveying purposes etc.
