Find a cheap palm on ebay for about 30 bucks. We have a Tungsten, but you can get a zire and they work just fine.

The Z22 by PALM is what we use. We love it! Only about $99 brand new.

All depends though. Are you going to use it for anything else? I purchased a Dell Axim X5 for under 100, and it's just like a computer on the go. :)

Mike if you're using it strictly for caching the Palm M500 is cheap and works fine. That's what I have. You've seen mine.

I have been looking for a different GPSr. Does anyone know which ones are Wi-Fi and GPS capable that are usable for Cachemate or any other type of software for Geocaching?
