Cheap GPS device?

Looking for a cheap GPS device, all I really need from is an output of latitude/longitude or something so I can locate that point on a map afterwards.

I'd like to bring it with me on bike rides, so nothing that attaches to a laptop or anything...

Suggestions?
 
I suggest buying one with a built in compass and with a patch antenna that faces the front of the unit, so that it can be mounted horizontally on a bike... Although my Magellan's quadrifilar antenna works fine at that angle too.

Edit: And you need one that can hook up to a serial/usb port to download your tracks to a computer to view on a map. You can import them to Google Earth if you buy the pro version for $20.
