Brian,

Cheaper than any of the others suggested so far, and pretty good on the 
simmer:  the Coleman Exponent Dual Fuel Featherlight 442, which burns white 
gas and unleaded gasoline.  Not as good for simmering as the cannister 
stoves, but goes low enough for the Outback, I believe.  Of course, Coleman 
fuel (aka white gas) cost is 1/4th that of the cannisters; unleaded gas, 
1/16th.
