I'm looking for a recommendation / guidance on a handheld GPS, compatible with a Mac, that I can use for:

1) Navigating around U.S. cities on foot and keeping track of the distance covered;
2) Using on bicycle and motorcycle rides for navigation (I don't necessarily need something that talks);
3) Some hiking;
4) Geocaching.

Is there anything that is suitable for all or most of these activities?

Thanks.

Garmin GPSMAP 60Csx or 76Csx is a good unit. I use it to navigate in both car and on foot in cities. There's another thread in this forum with some good comments:

I've been happy with my 60Cx for walking in the city and people tell me it's fine on bicycle or motorcycle. It keeps track of distance and is good for geocache.
