	I usually use a small sized SEE-THRU bag, partly shrunk down for my Garmin
12, which is larger than an Etrex.  No problems reading the screen or
manipulating the buttons.  It's the only thing in that bag.  I also have a
Garmin 72 and so far it's kept itself waterproof --  it's been splashed
heavily but so far not dunked for an extended period....
