Just ordered at sonystyle.co.uk: Sony GPS-CS1. So looking forward to this little device. It records your GPS position automatically every 15 seconds and stores it in memory. You can then just plug it into your computer and sync the positions with the images you took. Et voila: you end up with perfectly tagged images, that you can view on a (world-)map.

Oh by the way, even though Sony officially only claims it's compatible with CyberShot and other Sony cameras, I can assure you that it's actually compatible with any camera / JPEG files in general. When you plug in the device, you can simply mount it as a disc. You'll find proper NMEA GPS logs which you can import in most GPS mapping software.

Short specs:

- Runs on standard AA batteries.

- Aprox. 86.400 (360h) position records per battery.

- Stores one record every 15 seconds.
