Any unit will do. You can even use the ones that you can now find in many cell phones.

I personally use a Garmin GPSMap 60CSx (used also when hiking) and a puck-like Garmin GPS 18 USB (very useful when intercepting an eclipse from a ship or an aircraft as SEM recomputes in real-time the local circumstances).

The first one has a display, while the second doesn't. Both can be connected using a USB cable to automatically update the coordinates in the eclipse photography software.
