Please note that the GPS Photo Linker software for the Mac is not compatible with OSX 10.5 Leopard yet, I'm sure it will be someday soon, but not yet.

A few things you'll want to look for when shopping for a GPS unit to use for geotagging your images:

1. USB interface. Believe it or not many Garmin units still use DB9 (Com Port) connections.
2. Make sure the unit save track data ... not all of them do. I have a very nice nuvi 250 in my truck but it does not save tracks.

Here are some Windows programs that do what GPSPhotoLinker does (I have not tried these programs)
