Get the Venture HCx! (unless you think you need an electronic compass/altimeter, in which case get the Summit HCx.) There also are other options for purchasing online. You can currently buy a Venture HCx for about $110 from Amazon or about $130 from OffRoute. The eTrexH requires a seperate, serial cable and to use it, you might need to get a USB adapter unless your computer has a serial port that will accept it. Also, if you are going to cache with the unit, you will want to be able to connect the unit to your computer. It is easier to use and has more functions. Given the choice between the two units you mentioned, without question, I would purchase the Venture HCx. It isn't all that useful for caching and, if you have a unit with a geocache function, it won't treat POI's as geocaches and, thus, you wouldn't be able to read the note from the compass page while searching for a cache. I think you need a unit that accepts a memory card to do the points of interest thing. You can do that online after you purchase the unit. Can you help me figure out what you mean? I got confused by the "upgrade to 2.50" bit couldn't find any mention of upgrade.
