Big time.
(this from personal experience)
Can the WiFi stuff can be disabled (ie powered-off, like in an iPod
Touch) when shooting in the field where all you need is the GPS
function? Or is the GPS h/w itself the battery hog?

I'm most interested in the WG-1, myself. I've been hoping to get a
waterproof Optio for a long time. Hopefully I'll be able to do that
later this year.
It would be quite useful to have a GPS in a Pentax DSLR, I wonder how
long it will take.
Actually, you can have that now if you pop in an Eye-Fi Pro X2 8GB SDHC
card. Has a built-in GPS, as well as the WiFi that is its primary
function. Street price about $120.

I'm considering one because it can be used in a wireless tethering setup
directly to Lightroom. Perfect for studio shooting.
