Garmin 60 CSX GPS Unit
Best device I've used but maps are expensive

I've had an etrex legend and have also used a delorme pn20. Took this out on it's maiden voyage on the bike in the mountains yesterday. Every GPS I've used prior to the 60CSX would drop signal when under heavy canopy (and in my pack) resulting in inaccurate mileage, ascent, and track. The 60CSX performed amazingly. Extremely accurate tracks and held a signal all day (in my pack) regardless of tree cover. I purchased this because I already had the Garmin maps and because it seems to be the most Mac-friendly device. The maps are not cheap and I believe Delorme's subscription model is better and their maps are of superior quality. That said, I'm very happy I picked up the Garmin 60 CSX.
