Kenwood TH-D74A HT. You get the HT, charger, spare battery, copy of the manual, and antenna. Here's what Kenwood has to say about this radio:
Kenwood TH-D74A Digital Tri-band Handheld Transceivers

Kenwood has already garnered an enviable reputation with the TH-D72A/E handheld APRS® Amateur Radio transceiver. Now Kenwood has raised the bar even further with the new TH-D74A Digital Tri-band Handheld Transceivers!

They have added support for D-STAR®, the digital voice and data protocol developed by the JARL, and enabled simultaneous APRS and D-STAR operation – an industry first. These handhelds offer intuitive operation and rugged IP54/55 weatherproofing. TH-D74A portable transceivers feature built-in GPS, wide-band multi-mode reception, IF filters, DSP equalizer, a transflective TFT color display, Micro-SD memory slot and Bluetooth/USB connectivity. And… there's much more!
