Garmin 60Csx or Garmin eTrex. Which to Take?

I'm renting a motorcycle and gear for a 2 week trip to Laos

I am renting the GPS as well and have the choice of these two-


Garmin 60Csx model GPS.* This unit comes runs on 2 AA batteries and has a base Lao map installed. Tour waypoints available and handlebar overlay mount comes with the unit.* Screen is black and white.

Garmin eTrex hand held reciever.* This unit runs on 2 AA batteries.* Screen is colour and a Lao base map is installed.* Tour waypoints available and this unit has a handlebar mount.

I have never used a GPS before and will literally pick up the bike and go.

Would appreciate any feedback on these units regarding ease of use, screen visibility etc.
Without knowing much about either unit (seems online reviews are mixed) the obvious difference seems the larger black and white screen of the 60Csx Vs smaller colour screen of the Etrex.

Any thoughts at all would be great.

Cheers,

James
