Thank you all for the reply's. I personally think I can get away with just my phone but i think my other half would benefit from a GPS. I will look more into both and will check the links.

Thanks for the info. We plan on doing this a lot. We already walk a lot with the kids and dogs so we just thought this would be a good way to explore new places and keep the kids interested. My phone seems to keep battery better than his. The other issue we have found is signal. How can we get around the lack of 3g?

Yesterday my OH and the kids started geocaching. We had loads of fun and the kids loved the "treasure hunt". We used the Groundspeak geocaching app on our iphones. The battery on his phone didnt seem to last very long so we were thinking of getting a device specifically for doing this. What would you guys advise?
