Interesting thread, this. I've started geotagging images using "Studioline Photo Classic", the program I use for cataloging and managing my photos. The program can read data from a portable GPS device but as I don't own one I'm manually geotagging. It's not as slow as it sounds but obviously it's not going to be as accurate as using a GPS. I'm interested in getting a GPS device to make the geotagging more automatic but have no idea what's available. I'd be interested in any suggestions for a basic portable GPS device. Studioline supports .gpx, .nmea and .kml formats.
