Pharos Trips and Pics with GPS Receiver

Pharos Trips and Pics
Front Inputs Exposed USB

REVIEW

There's a lot of buzz about geotagging these days. In fact, this year I expect we'll see cameras equipped with built-in GPS receivers that can automatically tag photos with location information as they're shot. But what if you don't have one of these fancy new shooters? The $99 Pharos Trips and Pics with GPS Receiver is a simple-to-use device that logs your trips and shows you where your photos were taken in Google Earth, Microsoft Streets & Trips, or Microsoft Visual Earth.
