Sara,
Not owning either it's hard to say for sure but here's my take.
The IQ is an expensive PDA and GPS in one ($550) but I hear battery life is
very short, like several hours. Also, if you'd break it, that would probably
knock out both features.
Where as if you already own a PDA, you can save some $$'s buying just the GPS.
If you need a PDA too, it leaves you with lot's of options such as PPC or
Palm, wireless or bluetooth, $100 to $600 cost range, etc.
Still, you need to decide if you want to carry just one gadget or 2.
I'm sure you'll get LOT'S of replies on this one.

IQue vs. 60CS
Which is better? The IQue alone or a 60CS and a seperate PDA? I'm in the
process of selling a couple things I don't need (not geocaching related stuff)
and saving some money and thinking about upgrading from my Etrex Vista. I'd
like to here the thoughts of others before doing anything since both are not
cheap investments.
