Getting your photos tagged directly in your camera is tricky. I heard
that HP owns the patent for it, but I've seen a couple camera models
out there that can do it (Ricoh 500SE for one). I think there are some
other cameras that can work with external GPS receivers, maybe
bluetooth. However, if it were me, I would focus on getting the best
camera first, and use software later to sync up the pictures. I've
heard good things about gPicSync (free software).
