That has not only been helpful, but a lot of fun to centralize my trips locations or caves on a program like TopoUSA. Usability is a factor in my opinion. A couple of friends have the Magellan explorist 210 and for my taste, I don't like it at all. They love it. The Garmin has always been more straight forward to me and seem to be designed in a user friendly manner.
The only problem I see with a cheap one is if you plan on growing to do other things. For you, it might be fine.
Ideally, if you could use one for geocaching for a few days, it would help you figure out the features you like and need. Geocachers are really mini-experts in gps technology.
