GPS Ideas

Can someone give me an opinion on what type of GPS unit is good enough for
me. I'm a GA pilot, very low time, looking for a decent GPS to take along
for some X/C flying in the rentals. Just need to see highways and cities
etc. I'm not very worried about airspace as there isn't much around my local
airport and the charts do a good enough job.

I use a Garmin III Plus as my main (not primary navigation tool in
the Cub. I did download a data chunk of airports and other landmarks
within 200 miles ($4.50?) , massaged it on my computer with Easy GPS
(free), and uploaded it to the Garmin.

I am however a recreational pilot, so I don't do towered airports as a
rule.
