Just an FYI - None of these devices are legal for badge, record or

Correct on the badge and record work, incorrect on contests. Off the
shelf GPS units which record position and GPS altitude can be used for
flight documentation in SSA sanctioned contests (though you can't get US
team points), as well as in many other countries. Check your rules...

And the motivation of the original post was a discussion about the
pending changes to allow simple GPS systems for certain badges. So
that might change.
