| Subject: | GISList: seeking recommendations for GPS receivers |

I am seeking recommendations for purchasing 2-4 GPS receivers, which I
hope to purchase in the near future. I have little experience with the
brands, models and various unit specifications that are currently on the
market. I've heard good things about Trimble but know their prices can
be high. Who are the other main suppliers/manufacturers?
My target price range is less than $500 but I can go up to $1000 if
that's what I need. Accuracy should be as fine as possible, of course,
but would like to get 5 meters or better. DGPS compatibility is
preferable. Ruggedized is not necessary. The units should also be
compatible with Windows 2K/XP operating systems for direct uplink as
well as ESRI products. Is it possible to link a GPS unit to an ESRI
product (ArcPad, ArcGIS) on a laptop in the field, so I can see my
tracks on the screen as I move?
Any advice you can give me would be greatly appreciated. Will sum the
responses. Thanks.
