I've been updating the trail maps here on the Island for our local
Trails Committee <http://sanjuanislandtrails.org/>
I asked folks to carry a gps when they walked the trails and send me the
tracks to help out. There are miles of trails. Lots of people were eager
to show how useful their $800 iThingies were....NOT. This is a typical
track from an iphone. Pretty much useless for my needs. I say thanks and
delete them.

Bottom line: maybe good enough for tagging photos but don't rely on it
when you get lost. Don't know about the dedicated I-gotU gadget. When I
carry a real gps it's easy enough to sync the time with my camera and
tag photos with software as Moose suggests.
