The desert creature
I played with a version for a cage back in USA. Useless piece of junk because of non-replaceable eprommed maps and weak reception. I use this one with a handlebar mount and it hasn't disappointed me so far... Easy to operate in gloves too (5 oversized buttons on sides really far one from another and a joystick).
"People are stupid ... almost anyone will believe almost anything. Because people are stupid, they will believe a lie because they want to believe it's true, or because they are afraid it might be true. People's heads are full of knowledge, facts, and beliefs, and most of it is false, yet they think it all true ... they can only rarely tell the difference between a lie and the truth, and yet they are confident they can, and so all are easier to fool." -- Wizard's First Rule
Immature and proud of it.
I've just bought a Garmin Quest. It's waterproof, comes with an NZ map but will take others. Has a dedicated bike mount (extra cost). Built in antenna. It has an output for a helmet speaker. It has a trip computer function with speed, top speed, overall average, moving average and trip times. A great little toy.

Speed doesn't kill people.
Stupidity kills people.
Rest In Peace
There is also this one , which I think would be great.
They arent available in NZ yet, but one day I am sure they will be.
Otherwise my Etrex Legend is great for basic navigation

I'd stay with Garmin. AFAIK they are the only one with the routable NZ map (CityNav NZ). I use 2 of their products (StreetPilotIII for the cage and Legend C for the my gas- and human-powered bikes) and they work great (although Legend C lacks voice prompts, a feature which I sorely miss).
