"Thinking of getting a GPS Receiver to add data to OSM? These reviews 
are here to help."

Well, if you have a particular model in mind, and want to know if it's 
any good, then they are some help. But if your mother has told you "I 
want a GPS with a screen for my motorbike, which I can also use for 
gathering OSM data", then trying to read through and compare 50 
different models is impossible.

Would it be really too controversial for OSM to have a "we particularly 
recommend these N models" page, where N is small? Clearly, the NaviGPS 
(which I own) would be one, because it's good and OSM gets some money. 
But it would be great to have some sort of consensus on models in other 
price/capability brackets, perhaps a little more than a few mailing list 
messages saying "I have a Foo GPS, and it's fine".

What do people think?
