I own 19 GPSr's. I am a geocacher and teach geocaching to groups. Of my 19 units, 15 of them are the yellow e-Trex 100's. One of the 15 is the new H model. They don't have all the bells and whistles of the higher priced models, they are simple to use and the accuracy is acceptable for geocaching. The new H model has even more accuracy. And the cost is right--$100, less if on sale. Battery lasts 14 hours. The camo version may be 'sexier' but for the extra $25 it's not worth it. The yellow color stands out -- a lot harder to lose in the woods. Even the low priced e-trex's are compatible for GPS download with the available connection cable.
