Our club is investigating purchasing a GPS for mapping purposes.
Many people in the club use variations of the Forerunner for training, and have on occasion used a Forerunner to help with mapping, so we're reasonably familiar with what it can offer. What we're wondering is whether there is a more mapping-specific GPS device that would be better for mapping use (as opposed to the Forerunner, which is of course intended to be a training device).
Does anyone have any words of wisdom on this topic?

Have you already checked the O-map YahooGroup's archives? (you may have to join to do so if you haven't already... just throwing this out for info for others with mapping questions)
