Here ya go, check out the URLs for yourself (you can Google "Casio" and
"GW300" if you want some more of them):

Although if you're gonna wait 4-5 years to get one they'll probably be
replaced by something even better by then. :-)
BTW, I bought it more for the atomic timekeeping feature (I work in
broadcasting, and some of the stuff we do has to happen exactly on time
or we hear about it... ;-)) - the Time Recorder became really useful
when I decided to chip the rust off my celnav skills a few months ago.
Synergy like that can be fun... :-)
